Question

1. A business owner wants to have a rectangular parking lot resurfaced. The lot is 93 feet long by 58 feet wide. Based on a cost of $1.47 per square foot, the owner incorrectly estimated that it would cost $12,000 to have the lot resurfaced. Which could be used to get an estimate that is closest to the actual cost of resurfacing the parking lot? (1 point) 100 · 60 · 1.5 100 · 60 · 2 90 · 60 · 2 90 · 60 · 1.5

Answer 1

90*60*1.5 I did this yesterday, this is correct.

Answer 2

round 93 down to 90

 round 58 up to 60

 round 1.47 to 1.50

 so 90*60*1.5 would be a close estimate
