What is the area of the portion of the field used to grow crops?

Scientific notation is used in expressing large numbers in smaller numbers. In order to write a number in scientific notation the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10.

For example, : 1 x 10² is equivalent to 100

The area of a rectangular field = length width

Area of the rectangular field used to grow the crops : 1/2 x (3.1 x 10³) x (1.9 x 10³)

1/2 x (5.89 x [tex]10^{3+3}[/tex])

1/2 x  (5.89 x [tex]10^{6}[/tex])

2.945 x 10³ ft²

= 2.9 x 10³ ft² (rounding off to two significant numbers)
