List the data:
Paint usage, 14 square meters per liter.
3 coats of paint.
Plan shows 1 cm to mean 0.50 meters.

HOW TO THINK THROUGH
Determine the amount of area for the door, multiply this area by 3, and use the paint usage ratio to find the volume of paint.

Try to solve the problem yourself before asking any more help on this.
