Answer:

The field has an area of 135,000 m².

Explanation:

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

- - - - - - - - - - - - - Length: 0.45 km = (0.45 × 1000) m = 450 m.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - Width: - - 0.3 km = (0.3 × 1000) m = 300 m.

So the field is a rectangle 450 meters long and 300 meters wide.

To compute the are of this rectangle, we multiply its length by its width.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Area = 450 × 300 = 135,000 m².

so the answer is 135,000 m².
