26.A Rectangular field 90 m long and 70 m wide has 3 m wide path inside the field and along the sides of the field . Find the area of path and the cost of construction at the rate of Rs 20 per square meter .
Answers
Answer:
90*70=6300
6300 * 3=18900
378000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A Rectangular field 90 m long and 70 m wide has a 3 m wide path inside the field and along the sides of the field.
To Find:
Find the area of path and the cost of construction at the rate of Rs 20 per square meter.
Solution:
It is given that the field has dimensions 90m*70m, so to find the area of the field we will use the formula as,
where,
l= length
b= breadth
Now the area will be,
Because a path of 3m is being created then the dimensions for the inner field will be,
length=90-3-3
=84m
breadth=70-3-3
=64m
So the area of the inner field will be,
Now the area of the path will be the area of the field minus the area of the inner field,
So the cost of construction at Rs20/sq.m will be,
Hence, the cost of the construction of the path will be Rs18480.
