Answer:
4 cans of paint will cover 8/9 of the surface
Step-by-step explanation:
One can of paint covers 2/9 of the house.
Garvin has used 4 of those cans.
To get the fraction of the whole surface that has been covered by those 4 cans of paint, we can multiply, following the logic below:
1 can of paint covers = 2/9 of the surface
4 cans of paint will cover = x of the surface
x = 4 X 2/9 = 8/9
Therefore, 4 cans of paint will cover 8/9 of the surface
