So the ceiling takes 5/6 gallon to paint. We know that you already have 1/30 gallon and another gallon in addition to that. We must convert the 5/6 into ?/30 so we can see how much we need to use. So if we convert 5/6 to out of 30, we get 25/30. So the first can has 1/30 gallon so we subtract that amount from the total paint needed. So now we only need 24/30 gallon to paint the ceiling. If we subtract that amount needed from the full (30/30) can we have left, that will give us the remaining amount of paint we have left. 30/30-24/30= 6/30. This reduces to 1/5. So there is 1/5 gallon of paint left over after painting the ceiling.
The property of the subtraction of fractions to solve the problem. Then she has left the paint is 0.2 gallons.

Kayla has decided to paint the ceiling in the living room.
She has 1/30 gallon of paint left.
The living room ceiling will take 5/6 gallons.
After buying another gallon and painting the ceiling. The paint she is having.
[tex]1+\dfrac{1}{30} = \dfrac{31}{30}[/tex]
The living room ceiling will take 5/6 gallons. The paint left will be.
Then use the subtraction property.
[tex]\dfrac{31}{30} - \dfrac{5}{6} = \dfrac{31 - 25}{30} = \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
Thus, she has left the paint is 0.2 gallons.
