Answer 1

Answer:

4,262.50 m

842 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Park is rectangular in shape

Width of park = 800 m

Area of park = 3.41 km²

Width of park = 800 / 1000 = 0.8 km

Area of rectangle, A

A = l * w

l = Length ; w = width

3.41 = l * 0.8

3.41 = 0.8l

l = 3.41 / 0.8

l = 4.2625 km

Hence, length in meters :

4.2625 * 1000

= 4,262.50 m

B.)

1 km² is approximately 247 acres

3.41km² = 3.41 * 247

3.41 km² = 842.27

= 842 acres
