If a can of paint will cover approximately 60 square yards, what length of the wall can be painted if the wall is 8 feet high?

First, we need to convert the area from square yards to square feet because the height of the wall is given in feet.

1 square yard is equal to 9 square feet. So, 60 square yards is equal to 60 * 9 = 540 square feet.

Next, we need to find out how many square feet are in the wall. The area of a wall or any rectangle is length times height. We know the height is 8 feet, so we can set up the equation:

Length * 8 feet = 540 square feet

To solve for Length, we divide both sides of the equation by 8 feet:

Length = 540 square feet / 8 feet = 67.5 feet

So, a can of paint will cover a wall that is 67.5 feet long if the wall is 8 feet high.
