Answer:

The field has an area of 0.135 km².

Explanation:

We first convert the measurements from meters to kilometers by dividing by 1000.

- - - - - - - - - - - Length: 450 m = (450/1000) km = 0.45 km

- - - - - - - - - - - Width: 300 m = (300/1000) km = 0.3 km

So the field is a rectangle 0.45 kilometers long and 0.3 kilometers width.

To compute the area of this rectangle, we multiply its length by it's width.

- - - - - - - - - - - Area = 0.45 × 0.3 = 0.135 km².

So the answer is 0.135 km².

= 135000m^2

now into km,
