    4 liters of paint should cover the area of the basement since there can't be 3.255 liters of paint

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I'm sure theres no such thing as surface area of for a rectangle but there is area:

    Area: 10.5 x 15.5

    Area: 162.75

    162.75/50 = 3.255

    3.255 = => 4
