Question

Emery Allen · Accepted Answer

#160,000,000m^2# since #1km=1000m# #1km^2=1000xx1000m^2# #:. 160km^2=160xx1000xx1000m^2# #=160,000,000m^2#

undefined To convert square kilometers to square meters, you multiply by $10^6$ (since 1 square kilometer is equal to $10^6$ square meters).

So, for Liechtenstein with an area of 160 km²:

$$160 \text{ km}^2 \times 10^6 \text{ m}^2/\text{km}^2 = 160,000,000 \text{ m}^2$$

Therefore, the area of Liechtenstein is 160,000,000 square meters.

undefined To convert square kilometers to square meters, you need to multiply the value in square kilometers by $10^6$ (since there are $10^6$ square meters in a square kilometer).

So, for Liechtenstein's area of $160 \, \text{km}^2$, the equivalent area in square meters is:

$$ 160 \, \text{km}^2 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}^2/\text{km}^2 = 160 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}^2 = 160,000,000 \, \text{m}^2 $$

Therefore, Liechtenstein's area is $ 160,000,000 \, \text{m}^2 $.
