A farmer owns a field with an area of 0.23 km2. The farmer buys another field with an area of 45,000 m2. What is the total area of the fields he now owns in km2?
I know I'm very late but the answer should be 0.275 (km^2)
:)
To find the total area of the fields the farmer now owns in km², you need to convert the area of the second field from m² to km² and then add it to the area of the first field.
1. Convert the area of the second field from m² to km²:
First, convert 45,000 m² to km² by dividing it by 1,000,000 (since 1 km² = 1,000,000 m²).
45,000 m² / 1,000,000 = 0.045 km²
2. Add the areas of both fields to find the total area in km²:
0.23 km² (area of the first field) + 0.045 km² (area of the second field) = 0.275 km²
Therefore, the total area of the fields the farmer now owns is 0.275 km².
To find the total area of the fields the farmer owns, we need to add the areas of the two fields together.
First, let's convert the area of the second field from square meters (m2) to square kilometers (km2). Since 1 km is equal to 1000 m, we can convert the area from square meters to square kilometers by dividing by 1,000,000 (since there are 1,000,000 square meters in a square kilometer).
Area of the second field in km2 = 45,000 m2 ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.045 km2
Now, we can add the areas of the two fields together to find the total area.
Total area of the fields = Area of the first field + Area of the second field
Total area of the fields = 0.23 km2 + 0.045 km2
Total area of the fields = 0.275 km2
Therefore, the farmer now owns a total area of 0.275 km2.
If
1km=1000m
1km²=1000000m²
1m²=1km²/1000000
45000m²=(45000km²)/1000000=0.045km²
0.23km²+0.045km²=?
