Question

The area of MCM college is 213 hectares. Find its area in meters.

Answer 1

Hint: Given is the area parameter of the college given in hectares. We are asked to find the same area in meters. Now we know that both are the units used for measuring area. We also know that 1 hectare is equal to 1000-meter squares. So we will use this data to find the answer.

Complete step by step solution:
Given the area of MCM college is 213 hectares.
Now as we know that, \[1hectare = 10000{m^2}\]
So we will multiply the given area by 10000 because we are finding or converting yards into square meters that are converting bigger units to smaller units.
\[213 \times 10000 = 21,30,000{m^2}\]
Thus the same area can be written as \[21,30,000{m^2}\].
So, the correct answer is “ \[21,30,000{m^2}\]”.

Note: Note that square meter or square kilometers are the units used to measure area in a metric system. But when it comes to measuring lands of highest area we use units like square foot, yards, acres, hectares etc. these are interconverted according to the need or convenience. Inches , feet are small units whereas yards, acres, hectares are larger units.
