Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Length = 450\ m[/tex]
[tex]Width = 1200\ m[/tex]
Required
Determine the number of hectares in this dimension
First, we need to calculate the area of the land
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
[tex]Area = 450m * 1200dm[/tex]
Convert dm to m
[tex]Area = 450m * 120m[/tex]
[tex]Area = 54 000 m^2[/tex]
[tex]1 hectare = 0.0001m^2[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]1\ hectare = 0.0001m^2[/tex]
Multiply by 54000
[tex]Hectare = 0.0001 * 54000[/tex]
[tex]Hectare = 5.4[/tex]
Hence, there are 5.4 hectares
