Explanation / Answer

def estimateCost():
sq_feet = int(raw_input('Enter the square feet of wall space to be painted'))
paint = int(raw_input('Price of the paint per gallon'))
gallonRequired = sq_feet*1.0/112
LaborRequired = gallonRequired*8
paintCost = gallonRequired*paint
cost = LaborRequired*35
  
print 'number of gallons required : '+str(gallonRequired)
print 'hours of labor required : ' +str(LaborRequired)
print 'cost of paint : '+str(paintCost) + '$'
print 'labor charges : '+str(cost) + '$'
print 'total cost of job : '+str(cost+paintCost) + '$'
