Question

A rectangular field is 300 meters long and 300 meters wide. What is the area of the field in square kilometers? Do not round your answer. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

Answer 1

Area of the rectangular field in kilometers is 0.09
`km^2`

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 kilometers = 1000 meters

since we need to find the area in unit of kilometers

therefore converting length and width into kilometers

1000 meters = 1 kilometers

300 meters =
`(300)/(1000) = 0.3`

Likewise width = 0.3 km

Area = length x width

= 0.3km x 0.3 km

= 0.09
`km^2`
