Question

A rectangular field is 300 meters long and 150 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

0.045 squared kilometers

Explanation:

First, we convert both length and width to kilometers:

300 meters = 0.3 kilometers

150 meters = 0.15 kilometers

Then, we multiply to get the area of the rectangular field:

0.3 x 0.15 = 0.045 squared kilometers
