a gallon of interior paint covers on average 400 square feet. you need to figure how many square feet of wall space you have to determine how many gallons you will need.
To paint 180 square feet, generally about 3 quarts of paint would be required. However, this figure varies depending on how many coats are applied.
About 3,000 gallons of paint were used to paint the White House.

Just over 20 gallons
The total surface area of the building is 12,000. That means you would divide 12,000 by 500 and receive an answer of 240. You need 240 gallons of paint.
If 169 is floor area, then you are talking about roughly 430 square feet of wall. I would paint that with a bit less than 2 gallons.
400 Square Feet.
Seems like it is around $2.50 to $2.75 a square foot. I used estimates I have received from five painters averaged them and divided the cost by 1076 square feet of exterior paintable surface. I live in South Florida and we had the exterior of our house painted for around $1300. The house is 2200 square feet and single-story. They did an excellent job.
(6-ft x 172-ft) / (200 square feet per gallon) = 5.16 gallons
I work for Sherwin Williams paints and from what I understand it is our paints that paint The White House. The paint is a special mix. Everyone who comes in contact with the paint has to go through a background check.
