    The number of rolls of groovy flowered wallpaper needed to cover the apartment wall is 9 rolls

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here we have the area of the room wall to be covered is given by

    2*L*H + 2 * W * H

    Where:

    Length, L = 16 ft

    Width, W = 10 ft and

    Height, H = 8 ft

    Which gives

    2 * 16 * 8 + 2 * 10 * 8 = 416 ft²

    Therefore, the number of rolls pf wall paper required = 8.32 rolls

    Which means 9 rolls will be needed for the interior decoration as the rolls come in 50 ft² each.

    9 rolls

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of the surrounding wall is the product of the base perimeter and the wall height:

    A = (16 + 10) * 2*8 = 26*16 = 416 square feet

    If each roll of wall paper could cover 50 square feet of wall, then we would need a total of 416 / 50 = 9 rolls in order to cover all the surrounding walls.
