Show Worked Solution

\(\text{1 hectare}\ = 10\ 000\ \text{m}^{2}\)

\(\text{950 hectares}\ = 950 \times 10\ 000 = 9\ 500\ 000\ \text{m}^{2} \)

\(\text{1 km}^{2}\ = 1000\ \text{m} \times 1000\ \text{m}\ = 1\ 000\ 000\ \text{m}^{2}\)

\(\text{950 hectares}\ = \dfrac{9\ 500\ 000}{1\ 000\ 000} = 9.5\ \text{km}^{2} \)
