jane buys a tin of paint which will cover 30 cm$$ ^2 $$,how many plant pot of this size could be painted completely on their outside surface using this tin of paint 

To determine how many plant pots of the given size Jane can paint completely on their outside surface using a tin of paint that covers 30 cm², we need to divide the total area that can be covered by the paint by the area required to paint one plant pot.

From the previous calculation, the total area Jane wants to paint for one plant pot is approximately 2590.80 cm².

Given that one tin of paint covers 30 cm², we need to find how many such pots can be painted:

\[ \text{Number of pots} = \frac{\text{Total area covered by one tin of paint}}{\text{Area required to paint one pot}} \]

\[ \text{Number of pots} = \frac{30 \text{ cm}^2}{2590.80 \text{ cm}^2} \]

Let's calculate this:

\[ \text{Number of pots} \approx \frac{30}{2590.80} \]

\[ \text{Number of pots} \approx 0.0116 \]

Since the number of pots must be a whole number, Jane can paint 0 pots completely with one tin of paint because the coverage is far too small for even one pot.

Therefore, with one tin of paint that covers only 30 cm², Jane cannot paint even one entire plant pot completely on its outside surface.

### Tip:

When planning to paint objects, always ensure to calculate the total surface area to be painted and compare it with the coverage provided by the paint. This helps in determining the amount of paint required accurately.
