The estimate that 2.8 million square feet of the building is used for office space is not reasonable

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

From the plan, the width of the building is:

Width = 230 feet

The building has a circular area, and it has four floors

So, the estimate of the building area is:

Area= 4πR²

So, we have:

Area= 4 * 3.14 * 230²

Evaluate

Area= 664424

The above value cannot be approximated to 2.8 million

Hence, the estimate used for office space is not reasonable
