The area of a rectangle is length × width so half of this is 2.945 × 10⁶ is used to grow crops.
What is a rectangle?
A rectangle is a geometrical figure in which opposite sides are equal.
The angle between any two consecutive sides will be 90 degrees.
Area of rectangle = length × width.
Given a field in form of a rectangle.
Since the area of rectangle = length × width
So,
Area = 3.1 × 10³ × 1.9 × 10³
Area = (3.1 × 1.9) × (10³×10³)
Area = 5.89 × 10³⁺³
Area = 5.89 × 10⁶
Now half of this is used to grow crops.
It means Area / 2 ⇒ 5.89./2 × 10⁶
⇒ 2.945 × 10⁶ (In the scientific notation)
Hence "The area of a rectangle is length × width so half of this is 2.945 × 10⁶ is used to grow crops".
