Answer : The area of the field is,
480000cm^2

Explanation : Given,

Length of rectangular field = 8.0 m = 800 cm

Width of rectangular field = 6.0 m = 600 cm

Conversion used : (1 m = 100 cm)

Formula used :

Area = Length × Width

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the area of the field.

Area = 800 cm × 600 cm

Area =
480000m^2

Therefore the area of the field is,
480000cm^2
