drove the price of cotton down. Due to Abraham Lincoln’s Union Blockade, the
South was not able to market their millions of bales of cotton. He had the
precautionary measure that Europe would intervene with the export of cotton,

Answer:
577.5 and 436.8.
Explanation:
The dimensions of a rectangular section of forest land are 5.5 × 105 meters and 4.2 × 104 meters so this means that the length of the forest is 577.5 meters ( 5.5 × 105 meters) and the width of the forest is 436.8 meters (4.2 × 104 meters) so by multiplying the length and width of the rectangular forest we get the area of 252,252 square meters.
