Question

What is the answer and how do I do this?

Answer 1

`105000m^2`

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert the length of the sides in meters: since `1` kilometer equals `1000` meters, we have

`0.35km = 0.35*1000m = 350 m`
`0.3km = 0.3*1000m = 300 m`

So, our field is `350` by `300` meters. As for every rectangle, we compute the area by multiplying the sides, so

`A = 350m*300m = 105000m^2`

Answer 2

`"area "=105000" m"^2`

Explanation:

`"since your answer has to be in square metres"`

`"convert the dimension of the field into metres using"`

`• " 1 kilometre "=1000" metres"`

`0.35 "Km "=0.35xx1000=350" metres"`

`0.3" Km "=0.3xx1000=300" m"`

`"area of rectangle "=" length "xx"width"`

`color(white)(xxxxxxxxxxxx)=350xx300`

`color(white)(xxxxxxxxxxxx)=105000" m"^2`
