Given:

shape: rectangle

length: 1200 mm

width: 800 mm

Find: area in square meters

Solution:

First, let's convert the given dimensions to meters.

Conversion rule is 1 m = 1000mm. Let's convert the length first.

$1200\operatorname{mm}*\frac{1m}{1000\operatorname{mm}}=1.2m$

Length = 1.2 meters

Now, let's convert the width.

$800\operatorname{mm}*\frac{1m}{1000\operatorname{mm}}=0.8m$

Width = 0.8 meters

Now that we are done converting the dimensions of the board to meters, let's solve for the area. The formula is:

$Area=length* width\text{ }$

Let's plug in the converted dimensions to the formula.

$Area=1.2m*0.8m=0.96m^2\text{ }$

Therefore, the area of the board is 0.96 square meters.
