$1,394 " m"^2$

The first step is to convert the lengths of the rectangle from feet to meters. There are 3.281 feet in 1 meter (i.e., $1 " m" = 3.281 " ft"$ ).

length = $100 " ft" xx (1 " m")/(3.281 " ft")=30.5 " m"$

width = $150 " ft" xx (1 " m")/(3.281 " ft")=45.7 " m"$

Area = length $xx$ width

Area = $30.5 " m" xx 45.7 " m"$

Area = $1,394 " m"^2$

NOTE: You can also plug the question directly into Google, Bing, or Wolfram Alpha and it will give you the answer (but without the work above).
