The sides of a square region, measured to the
nearest centimeter, are 6 centimeters long. The
least possible value of the actual area of the
square region is

A.36.00 sq cm
B.35.00 sq cm
C.33.75 sq cm
D.30.25 sq cm
E.25.00 sq cm
Trust but verify.

The least possible side = 5.5 cm

Hence area = 5.5 x 5.5 = 30.25
