Question

Avi’s dining room measures 124 square feet and is in the shape of a square. Which is the best estimate of the length of one side of the room, to the nearest tenth of a foot? 10.7, 10.9, 11.1, or 11.4?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is correct

11.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square(A) is given by:

$A = s^2$

where,

s is the length of one side of the square.

As per the statement:

Avi’s dining room measures 124 square feet and is in the shape of a square.

⇒A = 124 square feet.

By definition we have;

$124 = s^2$

or

$s^2 = 124$

⇒$s = \sqrt{124} = 11.1355287$ inches

Therefore, 11.1 inches is the best estimate of the length of one side of the room, to the nearest tenth of a foot

Answer 2

The answer is 11.13 so in nearest tenth it would be 11.1
