Question

Assume that a gallon of paint covers about 350 square feet of wall space. Create an application with a main() method that prompts the user for the length, width, and height of a rectangular room. Pass these three values to a method that does the following:

  • Calculates the wall area for a room
  • Passes the calculated wall area to another method that calculates and returns the number of gallons of paint needed
  • Displays the number of gallons needed
  • Computes the price based on a paint price of $32 per gallon, assuming that the painter can buy any fraction of a gallon of paint at the same price as a whole gallon
  • Returns the price to the main() method

The main() method displays the final price. For example:

You will need 2.0 gallons The price to paint the room is $64.0

 

 

import java.util.Scanner;
public class PaintCalculator {
    public static void main (String args[]) {
        // Write your code here
    }

    public static double computeArea(double length, double width, double height) {
        // Write your code here
    }
    public static double computeGallons(double area) {
        // Write your code here
    }
}
