The length of a line originally 100 mm long on a map plotted to a scale of 1/1000, was found to be 96 mm due to shrinkage of the map. The map prepared using a tape of length 20 m was later found to be actually 20.03 m. If a certain area on the map, measured using a planimeter, is 282 mm2, what is the correct area on the ground?
