PLEASE HELP! A rectangular field is 62 meters long and 48 meters wide. Diane estimates the length of the field

to be 60 meters and the width to be 45 meters. What is the percent error of Diane's estimated

area measurement? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent.

Enter your answer in the space provided.

9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original area of the rectangle = length × width

= 62 × 48

= 2,976 m²

Diane area of the rectangle = length × width

= 60 × 45

= 2700 m²

Percent error = (original - estimated)/original × 100

= (2976 - 2700)/2976 × 100

= 276/2,976 × 100

= 0.0927419354838 × 100

= 9.2741935483870%

Approximately to the nearest whole percent = 9%
