A parking lot has 916 parking spaces that are shaped like parallelograms. The base of each space is 10 feet, and the height of each space is 18.5 feet. What is the total area of the parking spaces?
wdym i need this question
It’s 185 ft^2
thank you jamie you the best
i need help but uuuhhh i think its c
To find the total area of the parking spaces, we need to multiply the base by the height for each parking space and then sum up all the areas.
The base of each parking space is given as 10 feet, and the height is given as 18.5 feet. So the area of a single parking space is calculated by multiplying the base by the height: 10 feet * 18.5 feet = 185 square feet.
Since there are 916 parking spaces, we multiply the area of a single parking space by the number of parking spaces: 185 square feet * 916 = 169,660 square feet.
Therefore, the total area of the parking spaces in the parking lot is 169,660 square feet.
