Estimate the size of a crowd at a political rally that occupies a rectangular space with dimensions of 500 feet by 600 feet (to the nearest whole number). assume that each person occupies 4.5 square feet. a) 8,333 people b) 16,667people c) 33,333 people d) 66,667 people

66,667 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to find the area of the rectangle , since it is a rectangular field.

A = L X B

A = 500 X 600

A = 300,000

It was said that each person occupies 4.5 square feet , then to find the crowd we have:

Number of crowd = Area of the field / feet occupied by each person

= 300,000/4.5

= 66,666.66667

= 66, 667 to the nearest whole number

the correct answer is 828.07
