    the bottom of the pool is 15 x 30 = 450 sq feet.

    you the have 2 walls that are 30 x 5 = 150 x 2 = 300 square feet

    then 2 walls that are 15 x 5 = 75 x 2 = 150 square feet

    for a total of 450 + 300 + 150 = 900 square feet

    1 can covers 250 sq ft

    so 900/250 = 3.6

    so you would need 4 cans of paint
