Answer:

11.63 million dollar

Explanation:

In 2005 the construction cost index was 1746 , in 2015 , it was 3260.

change in index in 10 years  = 3260-1746 = 1514

change in 5 years ( estimated ) = 757

Estimated index in 2010 = 1746 + 757

= 2503

Estimated index in 2020  = 3260 + 757

= 4017

Value of building in 2010 = 1746 million dollar

Value of similar building - X

X / 1746 = index in 2020 (probable ) / index in 2010

X / 7.25 = 4017 / 2503

X = 11.63 million dollar
