Kumar bought a piece of land at RM14.50 per m(square).If he paid RM455000 for the land,find its area in hectares,correct to 3 significant figures.(1 hectare=10000m(square)

From your data:

10,000(455,000/14.5) = ?

455000RM * 1m^2/14.50RM * 1hectare/10000m^2

= 455000/(14.50*10000) = 3.14 hectare

To find the area of the land in hectares, we need to divide the total area (in square meters) by 10,000.

Given that Kumar paid RM455,000 for the land at RM14.50 per square meter, we can calculate the total area in square meters as follows:

Total area (in square meters) = Total cost / Cost per square meter
Total area = RM455,000 / RM14.50
Total area = 31,379.31 square meters (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Now, we can convert the area from square meters to hectares:

Area in hectares = Total area (in square meters) / 10,000
Area in hectares = 31,379.31 square meters / 10,000
Area in hectares = 3.138 hectares (rounded to 3 significant figures)

Therefore, the area of the land is approximately 3.138 hectares.
