Figure basically 300 Sq Ft per gallon. This will change depending on how porous the siding is and how many coats you are applying. Paint companies recommend two coats for a first rate job. You may be over or under depending but this is a good rule of thumb. Same for the trim.

8' x 100' is 800 square feet. (100x8=800)we need to know how many 400s (1 gallon of paint) we need so it's 800/400 = 2

1 gallon typically covers 300 - 400 square feet, so 1 coat of paint on 600sq ft requires around 2 gallons of paint.
1 can of paint roughly covers 600 square feet. You will need two cans (gallons).
It depends on the texture of the surface (including its preparation), its porosity. It also depends on the coverage of the paint and how many coats you want/need. Look at the coverage information on the paint container.
If 169 is floor area, then you are talking about roughly 430 square feet of wall. I would paint that with a bit less than 2 gallons.
Depending on the quality paint you are applying, the color, and if it has been primed are all factors on how many gallons it would take.
Common gallons of paint cover approximately 400 square feet. 1800 divided by 400 is 4.5. That is 4 and one half gallons or I would buy 5 gallons in case I lose some when I clean up or if there is a spill.

a gallon of interior paint covers on average 400 square feet. you need to figure how many square feet of wall space you have to determine how many gallons you will need.
Depends on how much paint used, how many coats, type of paint, how thick the paint is.
The answer will depend on the quality of the paint, the coverage of the paint and the preparation of the surface being painted. The Lowe's paint calculator says primer covers 200 square feet per gallon, and paint covers 350 square feet per gallon. Assuming for a dark surface you need at least 2 coats, and you are only using paint and not primer, and not knowing the type of paint, I would start with 3 gallons to be sure you have enough for 2 coats, and then see how it looks. If you need three coats, you might still have enough.
