Final answer:

The total area of the field that the four workers are harvesting potatoes from is 240 square feet, calculated by finding the area of one plot (60 square feet) and multiplying it by the number of plots (4).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total area of the field that the four workers have been hired to harvest potatoes from, we need to calculate the area of one plot and then multiply it by the number of plots. The area of a single plot can be found using the formula for area of a rectangle, which is length times width.

The area of one plot is 6 feet times 10 feet, which equals 60 square feet. Since there are four workers, each with their own plot, the total area of the field is 60 square feet times 4, which equals 240 square feet.
