First, calculate the semi-perimeter of the triangle using Heron's formula:
s = (a + b + c) / 2 s = (63 + 66 + 73) / 2 s = 202 / 2 s = 101
Next, calculate the area of the triangle using Heron's formula:
Area = √(s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c)) Area = √(101 * (101 - 63) * (101 - 66) * (101 - 73)) Area = √(101 * 38 * 35 * 28) Area = √(3537800) Area ≈ 1881.9 square meters
Now, calculate the number of cans needed:
Number of cans = Area / coverage per can Number of cans = 1881.9 / 70 Number of cans ≈ 26.88
Therefore, the painter will need 27 cans of paint to cover the triangle.

Step 1: Calculate the semiperimeter of the triangle.
``` s = (63 + 66 + 73) / 2 = 101 ```
Step 2: Calculate the area of the triangle using Heron's formula.
``` A = √[s(s - 63)(s - 66)(s - 73)] A = √[101(38)(35)(28)] A = 2191.9 m² ```
Step 3: Calculate the number of cans needed.
``` Number of cans = Area of triangle / Area covered by 1 can Number of cans = 2191.9 m² / 70 m² Number of cans = 31.31 ```
Since we can't buy a fraction of a can, we round up to the nearest whole number.
