okay I want to take my 12X13 sitting room (5 doorways, 1 double wide window, 1 elongated window, + 1 fireplace with wide chimney) and do a gradiation of color.

If I take 1 gallon of paint and want to figure out how much per 4 paint cans (you can buy them empty) how do I figure this out...

The bottom will be 100% creamy yellow.

The second layer will be 75% yellow 25% white mixture. Third layer 50% yellow 50% white mixture.

Fourth layer at the top 25% yellow 75% white mixture.

So if a gallon has 128oz how do I figure the math for this?
