Answer:

  11 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of quarts needed for the inside of the barn. Then total amount of paint used is ...

  x +(x +19) = 107

  2x = 88 . . . . . . . . subtract 19

  x = 44 . . . . . . . . .  divide by 2

Since there are 4 quarts in a gallon, 44 quarts is 11 gallons.

Jay needs 11 gallons of paint for the inside of the barn.
