You will need approximately 10 rolls of 500' long joint tape.
Each sheet covers 48 square feet. Divide 1500 by 48 gives you 31.25 sheets of drywall.
To the nearest board you'll need 21 boards. However, this is assuming complete flat surfaces, no cutting and waste
A good taper and mudder would use about 10 gallons for that.
You multiply the width by the length to get square footage. Example 4x8 sheet is 32 sqare feet, 4x12 ft board has 48 square feet.
If you drywall on 16" on-centre studs, with sheet length perpendicular to the studs, and screw the two outside length edges at 6" spacing (as it should be) and the two interior studs at 12" spacing, the answer is 48 drywall screws per 4'x8' sheet.

I think 144
About 50% more than the 1/2 inch ,because it's unusual and not in much demand .Generally 18-20 per sheet.
they figure a man can hang about 6-8 sheets 4x8 an hour - when you figure in cutting round outlets - windows ect. drywallers don't make alot of money say -8.00 to 15.00 an hour ....... drywall is usually charged by the square foot --- at .60-1.25 a foot including finishing ...... .15 to .40 just for hanging ...... question is why are you onlly hanging 4x8 sheets -- you should be hanging 4x8, 4x10, 4x12, 4x14, 4x16 whatever it takes to make as least amount of joints possible- that's how you save money !
the answer is 48
