Answer:
[tex]2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
The fence is in the shape of a rectangle, which has an area of length * height.
Length of the fence is 200 ft and height is 4 ft, so area is:
Area of fence = 200 * 4 = 800 sq. ft.
Since 1 gallon covers 300 sq. feet, we will need 800 divided by 300 gallons to cover the whole fence.
Amount of paint needed = [tex]\frac{800}{300}=2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] gallons
