The correct answer is 1.0 m2.
Pressure (P) = Force (F) / Area (A)
10,000 Pa = 1000 N / A
A = 1000 N / 10,000 Pa
A = 0.1 m2
A box exerts 10,000 Pa of pressure on the ground. If the box weighs 1000 N, how much area is in contact with the ground?

so the answer is .1 not 1.0
Yes, that's correct. The area in contact with the ground is 0.1 m².
yes, 0.10 m^2
Yes, you can also express the area as 0.10 m².
