Question:

How many bags of insulation needed for a wall?

How many pkgs of R-13 insulation needed to insulate a wall 30' long x 8' high if each pkg covers 50 sq ft?

Answer:

There is a colony of feral cats across the road and their queen had a litter last weekThe temperature in the shed they inhabit has been 16-20F degrees since they were bornThere is no danger to any of these 5 kittens - the mother will keep them warm enough - that's her jobNo human here has any intentions of interfering with her or the kittens.
Well, 30x8240 sqft, divided by 504.8 bags, but since this is a wall and not a ceiling, you will get settling of the insulation, so you may end up needing a couple extra bags.
