Answer:

72 hectares

Explanation:

The dimensions of the rectangle on the ground will be 20,000 times the dimensions shown in the drawing:

20,000×3 cm = 60,000 cm = 600 m

20,000×6 cm = 120,000 cm = 1200 m

The area of the land is ...

A = LW = (1200 m)(600 m) = 720,000 m²

1 hectare is 10,000 m², so this is ...

720,000 m² × (1 ha)/(10,000 m²) = 72 ha

The area of the plot is 72 hectares.
