Central Park is a rectangular-shaped park in the middle of New York City. The area of the park is 3.41 square kilometers. a) if the width of the part is 800 meters, what is the length to the nearest meter? Show your work.

b) How many acres is the park to the nearest acre? ( Note: 1 square kilometer is approximately 247 acres) Use a unit multiplier and show your work.

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
