Answer:
Therefore the width of the warehouse is 245 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rounding to the nearest foot:
- If the digit of tenths place is between 1-4, then the unit digit remains same.
- If the digit of tenths place is between 5-9, then the unit digit increases by 1.
Given that,
A real estate purchases a 60,000 square foot warehouse.
The width of warehouse is exactly of its length.
Since the unit of 60,000 is square foot. So, it is area of the warehouse.
The area of a rectangular plot is = Length× width.
Since the width of warehouse is exactly of its length.
Then the length of the ware house = the width of the warehouse
∴ Length× width =60,000
⇒width× width =60,000
⇒ width² =60,000
⇒ width =245 feet.( nearest to feet)
Therefore the width of the warehouse is 245 feet.
