Answer:

The sports facility is 2,960,000 sq. m in area.

Explanation:

The dimension of the sport facility = 0.74 km by 4 km

The Length of the facility = 4 km

The width of the facility = 0.74 km

Now, 1 km = 1000 meters

⇒ 4 km = 4 x (1000) = 4000 meters

and 0.74 km = 0.74 x (1000) = 740 meters

Now, AREA OF THE RECTANGLE = LENGTH x WIDTH

So, the area of the facility = 4000 m x 740 km

= 2,960,000 sq. m

Hence, the sports facility is 2,960,000 sq. m in area.
