8/A rectangular piece of plot measures 0.6 km by 0.5 km. Each side is to be fenced with
5 rows of wires. What is the length of the wire needed? If the wire costs 9 per metre,
what will be the cost of the wire required for fencing?
9. Ranjan walks around a rectangular park of length 60 m and breadth 40 m and Smita walks
around a square park of side 55 m. Both take 3 rounds each. Who walks more distance and
by how much?
1. A rectangular piece of land is to be fenced for an exhibition. The length of the exhibition land
is 250 m and its breadth is 200 m. We need to keep an entrance of 10 m and an emergency
axit of 5 m If the cost of this snecial fencing is 175 ner metre what will he the total cost
Answers
Answer:
1) Length = 0.6 km
Breadth = 0.5 km
Perimeter =2( length+ breadth)
= 2(0.6+0.5)
=2(1)
= 2 km
Each side is to be fenced with 5 rows of wires.
So , the perimeter will be 5(2) = 10 km
Cost of fencing per meter = Rs. 9
Total cost of fencing = 10×9
= Rs. 90
2) Length of rectangular park = 60 m
Breadth of rectangular park = 40 m
Perimeter =2(60+40)
=2(100)
=200 m
Ranjan walks 3 times around the park , then the
distance travelled by him = 200×3
= 600 m
Side of a park =55 m
Perimeter =4× length of any Side
= 4×55
=220 m
Smita walks 3 times around the square park , then
the distance travelled by her = 220×3
=660 m
Here , If we compare the distances travelled by
both , Smita travelled more Distance than Ranjan.
i.e., 220-200
= 20 m.
3) Length = 250 m
Breadth =200 m
Perimeter = 2(250+200)
=2(450)
= 900 m
Fencing can't be made in the entrance and exit.
So the length would be removed.
i.e., 900- (10+5)
= 900-15
= 885.
Cost of fencing per meter = 175
Total cost of fencing = 885×175
=Rs. 1,54,875
