  1. Number of bricks that can be painted out of this container

    = area that can be painted by the container/

    surface area of bricks

    Area that can be painted by the container = 9.375m²

    = 9.375×(100)²cm²

    = 9.375×(1000)cm²

    = 93750cm²

    Total surface area of one brick = 2(lb+bh+lh+)

    = [2(22.5×10+10×7.5+22.5×7.5)]

    = 2(225+75+168.75)cm²

    = (2×468.75)cm²

    = 937.5cm²

    Number of that can be painted out of container

    = area that can be painted by container/

    surface area of bricks

    = 93750/937.5

    = 937500/9375

    = 100

    • therefore 100 bricks can be painted out by the paint of the qcontainer.

    Hope its helpful for you
