Ryder is building a workbench.
The top of the workbench is a rectangular piece of plywood that is 6.25 feet long and 1.83 feet wide.
Part A
Round the length and width to the nearest whole number.
Then estimate the perimeter of the workbench.
Which of the following equations models this estimate of the perimeter?
A. 6 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 16
B. 6 × 2 = 12
C. 7 + 7 + 2 + 2 = 18
D. 7 × 2 = 14
Part B
Round the length and width to the nearest tenth.
Then estimate the perimeter of the workbench.
Which of the following equations models this estimate of the perimeter?
A. 6.2 + 6.2 + 1.8 + 1.8 = 16
B. 6.2 × 1.8 = 11.16
C. 6.3 + 6.3 + 1.8 + 1.8 = 16.2
D. 6.3 × 1.8 = 11.34
