Question

Trigonometry

Answer 1

you need 20 cans of varnish. 60x80 =4800 sq feet.. since one can does 250.00 you have another 4550 sqfeet still to do..20 cans needed or 19.2 cans

Answer 2

It's not that easy. what kind of product are you using the 250sq ft is not a hard and fast rule the first coat won't go that far and the last will probably go farther. You should use three coats at the very least. I prefer a water based polyurethane (Benjamin Moore). the numbers you give come out to be 4800 sq ft so you need 20 gal. I would buy three fives and 5 to 7 singles you can always return unopened cans. Go to a PAINT store not a hardware or home improvement store and ask for detailed instructions . buy lamb's wool applicators it makes your life easier.

Answer 3

alright, if the floor is 60x80, it will be 4800 square feet. If the can covers 250 square feet, you will need 19.2 cans minimum. Since people dont buy a can thats almost empty, you will need 20 cans to cover the floor with varnish.

Answer 4

Calculate the area of the floor, then divide by the varnish coverage to get the number of cans required.

This is not trigonometry, just basic geometry.

Answer 5

20 cans
you have 4800 sq ft of floor so you need 19.2 cans rounding up to 20 cans of varnish

Answer 6

Kilometers. Translates to about 3.1 miles. Roughly

Answer 7

You have 4800 sq ft of floor so you will need 20 cans. bummer. That will probably be expensive.

Answer 8

19.2 cans..... so 20 cans.

(60*80)/250 = 19.2

Answer 9

20

And this is not trigonometry.
