A shopping mall has a length of 200 m and a width of 75 m.

What is the area of the mall?

1 × 103 m/2
1.75 × 104 1/m
1.5 × 104 m2
1.5 × 103 m

Area = length times width

Ms Sue, sorry to ask but is there a login or something? I'm just curious or does the website use IP Info for logins?

We use IPs for log ins.

So is it the third one?

I get 15,000 square meters

Honestly I'm still confused

Ok So all you need to do is find the area, Think of a Hershey bar its 3 bars wide and 7 bars long, if you multiply 7 by 3 you have the total area of the chocolate bar. if you apply the same thing to this situation then you would do what?

The area would be 15,000 if I multiply them

so do I try all the answers and see if they equal 15,000?

I know this has nothing t do with this question but why is your time different than mine?

Yes that is what i would do!

So is it the first one?

Yep!

thank you for sticking around i think ms sue gave up on me

Btw why is your time different from mine

DIfferent timezones

And i am hanging around weighting for my questions to be answered so...

where are you from

I live in Arizona

Back to the question:

the area of .... 200 m by 75 m
= 15,000 m^2
or
1.5 x 10^4 m^2 if written in scientific notation.

the closest that comes to that is the improperly typed c)

I copied and pasted right from my website so Idk

I don't know if it was right or not because when I took the test again that question didn't pop up again

First, I thought I was right now im not. Is the answer the first one?

Reiny knows much much more math than I do. Pay attention to what he posts.
