The length and breadth of a rectangular park are 45.2 metres and 15 metres respectively. Calculate its area.
678 square metres
Area = length x breadth
Area = 45.2 x 15
First, mutiply 452 x 15 = 6780
Since there is one digit after the decimal point in 45.2 x 15, we put the decimal point after one place starting from the extreme right.
So, Area = 678.0 = 678 square metres
