    It will cost Beth $73.45. You can multiply 5 by 13.99 to get how much 5 quarts costs. 5 x 13.99=$69.95 Now, how do we find how much 1/4 of a quart costs? You just divide 13.99 by 4. 13.99 / 4=$3.4795 All you have to do now is just add the cost of 5 quarts to the cost of 1/4 of a quart. 69.95 + 3.4795=$73.4475 Now you just round to get your final answer. $73.4475 >> $73.45

    In this question all the details required to solve the problem is already provided. Firstly the fraction given for the amount of paint required needs to be simplified for future use. then we have to get to the problem.

    Beth requires 5 1/4 quarts of paint to paint some wall

    Cost of 1 quarts of paint = $13.99

    Amount of paint required by Beth = 5 1/4

    = 21/4

    Cost of 21/4 quart of paint = (13.99 * 21/4)

    = 293.79/4

    = 73.45

    So Beth requires $73.45 worth of paint to paint the amount of wall she desired.
