You require space to serve 65 vehicles at any one time. Will a facility measuring 145ft by 130ft be adequate if each vehicle requires 300 sq ft

No it won't, it would only have enough room if each vehicle required 290 sq ft

145*130/65=290

Answer: No, it is not sufficient to serve 65 vehicles as it can only serve 62 vehicles with this space

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of space where vehicles are stored is

145 feet by 130 feet

Number of vehicles to serve = 65

Area required for each vehicle = 300 ft²

So, we need to find that is it sufficient for to serve 65 vehicles.

So, first we find the number of vehicles can be served in this space


\text{ Number of vehicles}=\frac{\text{ Area of space}}{\text Area of space required for one vehicle }}\\\\=(145* 130)/(300)\\\\=(18850)/(300)\\\\=62.83\\\\=62\ approx

No, it is not sufficient to serve 65 vehicles as it can only serve 62 vehicles with this space.
