To find the time it takes for 9 people to paint 7 walls, we first determine the rate at which the original group works. Seven people can paint 4 walls in 36 minutes, which means they can paint 1 wall in 36/4 = 9 minutes. Therefore, 9 people can paint 1 wall in 9/9 = 1 minute. To paint 7 walls, it would then take 7 minutes.

How much paint will you need for a 12' x 12' room?

To calculate the amount of paint needed for a 12' x 12' room, first determine the square footage of the walls. The room has four walls, each 8 feet high, totaling 384 square feet (2 walls at 12' x 8' + 2 walls at 12' x 8'). Subtract the area of doors and windows, if any, and then divide by the coverage rate of the paint, typically around 350-400 square feet per gallon. For one coat, you would need approximately one gallon of paint, but consider getting extra for a second coat or touch-ups.

That's going to depend on . . . -- how many square feet 1 gallon of paint covers -- whether you want to paint any of the walls ---- if so, how many, and the height of the ceiling above the floor -- whether you want to paint the ceiling -- whether you want to paint the floor None of these parameters is given in the question. We therefore don't stand a chance.
