Estimating large numbers/ counting principle

12 people fit comfortably in a 5 feet by 5 feet area. Use this value to estimate the size of a crowd that is 25 feet deep on both sides of the street along a 3-mile section of a parade route. (Hint: 1 mile = 5,280 ft)

One rule of thumb for estimating crowds is that each person occupies 2.5 square feet. Use this rule to estimate the size of the crowd watching a concert in an area that is 150 feet long and 240 feet wide.

At a recent “Dog walk” at UGA, the crowd was about ½ of a mile long, 6 feet deep on both sides of the street. If we determined that 11 people could fit comfortably in a 5 ft x 5 ft square, how many people were at the “Dog walk”?

If a car is 13.5 feet long and there are 3 feet between each car, how many cars can be on a 1-mile section of the highway?
