A construction company painted an apartment complex brown and white using a total of 904 gallons of paint. They used 591 gallons of brown paint. The construction manager calculates that they used 413 gallons of white paint. Is the manager's calculation reasonable? Estimate the number of gallons of white paint by rounding the numbers to check the manager's calculation.
A) The manager's calculation is reasonable because my estimate of 300 is fairly close to 413.
B) The manager's calculation is reasonable because my estimate of 400 is fairly close to 413.
C) The manager's calculation is not reasonable because my estimate of 300 is not close to 413.
D) The manager's calculation is not reasonable because my estimate of 400 is not close to 413.
