80. There are 10,000 square meters in 1 hectare and 1,000 millimeters in one meter. How many hectares are in 10 square millimeters?

F. [tex]1.0 \times 10^{-9}[/tex]
G. [tex]1.0 \times 10^{-7}[/tex]
H. [tex]1.0 \times 10^{-3}[/tex]
J. [tex]1.0 \times 10^3[/tex]
K. [tex]1.0 \times 10^9[/tex]



Answer :

To determine the number of hectares in 10 square millimeters, follow these detailed steps:

1. Convert 10 square millimeters to square meters:

- We know that there are 1,000 millimeters in one meter.
- Therefore, there are [tex]\(1,000^2 = 1,000,000\)[/tex] square millimeters in one square meter.
- To convert 10 square millimeters to square meters, we divide by the number of square millimeters in one square meter.

[tex]\[ \frac{10 \text{ square millimeters}}{1,000,000 \text{ square millimeters per square meter}} = 1 \times 10^{-5} \text{ square meters} \][/tex]

2. Convert square meters to hectares:

- We know that there are 10,000 square meters in one hectare.
- To convert square meters to hectares, we divide by the number of square meters in one hectare.

[tex]\[ \frac{1 \times 10^{-5} \text{ square meters}}{10,000 \text{ square meters per hectare}} = 1 \times 10^{-9} \text{ hectares} \][/tex]

Now our final result is 1 \times 10^{-9} hectares. This matches option F. Therefore, the correct answer is:
[tex]\[ \boxed{F. \, 1.0 \times 10^{-9}} \][/tex]
