A privacy wall that does not touch the ground? Your math teacher has an imagination.
Areas to paint:
1.5*300 = top of wall (if you say the bottom also has to be painted, multiply times 2)
20*1.5*2 = ends
300*20*2 = front and back
Multiply and add products for total surface.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look at the picture I made you (ALWAYS draw a picture): What is 200 on the side of what cube?
