Suppose a recent tornado destroyed a number of buildings in your town. Your school must accommodate 20% more students until schools in neighbouring communities can be rebuilt. All prefabricated portables have sold out so new portables will be built. You have been assigned the task of estimating the cost of the building project. The diagrams show the desired measurements for the portables.

Each portable has two doors and four windows as shown. There will be a 10-cm deep base of gravel under each portable. . One gallon of paint will cover 400 ft. Only the inside walls of the portables will be painted. Hardware is estimated at 5% and electrical is estimated at 10% of the total materials cost for each portable. . Each portable will require 80 working hours to build. . You can return any materials you do not use. 1. The table shows the items to include in your cost estimate. Copy the table.
