A rectangle is 14 m long and 6 m wide. Find the area of the rectangle in km2.

Area = 14 * 6 = 84 m^2. Since 1 km = 1000 m, 1 km^2 = 1,000,000 m^2. Area in km^2 = 84 / 1,000,000 = 0.000084.
First, find the area in square meters by multiplying the length of 14 m by the width of 6 m, which equals 84 sq m. Since one square kilometer equals one million square meters, divide 84 by 1,000,000 to convert the area. This yields 0.000084 square km.
