Since the answer asks for meters, let's convert to meters right at the start. There are 1000 millimeters in 1 meter, we can convert the dimensions:
Length: [tex] \frac{1300}{1000} =1.3m [/tex]
Width: [tex] \frac{900}{1000}=0.9m [/tex]
So to find the area of the board, we will use the equation: [tex] A=l*w [/tex]
[tex] A=1.3*0.9 [/tex]
[tex] A=1.17 m^{2} [/tex]
So now we know that the area of the board is [tex] 1.17m^{2} [/tex].
