1. Determine the number of cans needed by dividing the total area to be covered by the area each can covers:
\frac{64.5}{20} = 3.225

2. Since Dhiya cannot purchase a fraction of a can, she will need to round up to the nearest whole number, which is 4 cans.

3. Calculate the total cost by multiplying the number of cans by the cost per can:
4 \times 15.25 = 61.00

Therefore, Dhiya will need 4 cans of paint, and the paint will cost her $61.00.
