The equation for the area of the wall can be written as [tex](10\times L)=10\times (L_T+ L_1+L_2+L_3+L_4)[/tex].

Given to us:

Todd and his friends are painting 5 equal sections of a wall. So,

total number of sections wall has = 5,

Height of the wall = 10 feet,

Also, we know;

area of rectangle = length x breadth,

area of wall = length x height,

So,

Area of wall = Area painted by Todd and his friends

height of the wall x Total length of the wall =

height of the wall x length of the wall painted by Todd

+ height of the wall x length of the wall painted by friend 1

+ height of the wall x length of the wall painted by friend 2

+ height of the wall x length of the wall painted by friend 3

+ height of the wall x length of the wall painted by friend 4

Therefore,

[tex](10\times L)=(10\times L_T)+(10\times L_1)+(10\times L_2)+(10\times L_3)+(10\times L_4)[/tex]

taking 10 as common,

[tex](10\times L)=10\times (L_T+ L_1+L_2+L_3+L_4)[/tex]

Hence, the equation for the area of the wall can be written as [tex](10\times L)=10\times (L_T+ L_1+L_2+L_3+L_4)[/tex].
