+Steps

I started by measuring the “back wall”, which was 12.25 ft.

I measured the “left wall”, which was 14 ft. Knowing that my room was a rectangle, I then

multiplied the back wall (12.25’) times the left wall (14’) and got the area of my ceiling (171.5’).

+ For the walls, I excluded the doors and windows by

multiplying the length and width of the door or window, and subtracting the answer from the area of the wall

I then added all the wall’s areas. Since I needed two coats of paint for the walls and

ceiling, I multiplied the area of all the walls times 2, and the ceiling’s area times 2.

• Total ceiling area- 171 sq. ft. For two coats, I need 1 gallon of Online, because the total sq. ft. times 2 is only 342 ft.
