The real answer depends on how many coats you want, and is modified by whether the surface is very smooth, smooth, rough, very rough, etc. To a lesser extent, whether or not the surface has been primed is also a factor.

However, the answer to your question in most basic terms and in a perfect world, is 4 pints for a 9'6 square area. This is found by rounding up to 10 by 10, and realizing that 5X5 is 25 square feet, and 10 by 10 is 100 square feet. The leftovers wont be much, but should be enough for final touchups.

Determine the number of square inches of the blocks surface Multiply 30 inches x 24 inches = 720 square inches per block NOW find the number of square inches in an area 8 foot x 10 foot Multiply 8 foot x 10 foot = 80 square feet To find the square inches of a square foot, you multiply 144 inches (12 inches by 12 inches = 144 inches) by the number of square feet, thus, 80 square feet x 144 square inches = 11,520 square inches In order find the number of blocks you will need to cover the area, Divide the number of square inches of area to be covered by the number of square inches per block 11,520 square inches divided by 720 square inches per block = 16 blocks needed to fill an area 8 foot x 10 foot.


Calculate shapes in inches into square feet?

Okay let's say you have a rectangle. The length is 36 inches and the width is 12 inches. You know to find the area in square inches, just multiply length times width. So 36 inches X 12 inches = 432 square inches. In order to turn that into square feet, just take the square inches and divide by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot. So 432 square inches divided by 12 equals 36 square feet. Not so there are 144 square inches in a square foot, divide by 144
