The area of the parallelogram in square centimeters is 400,000.

To find the area of a parallelogram, we use the formula:

Area = Base x Height

In this case, we have:

Base = 4 meters

Height = 10 meters

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram is:

Area = 4 meters x 10 meters = 40 square meters

However, the question asks for the area in square centimeters. To convert from square meters to square centimeters, we need to multiply by 100^2 (since there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter):

Area = 40 square meters * 100^2 = 400,000 square centimeters

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram in square centimeters is 400,000.

Complete question:

What is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 4 meters and height of 10 meters in square centimeters?
