Step−by−stepexplanation:
Given :
•Length of the black board is 17 dm 7 cm
•Breadth of the black board is 11 dm 5 cm
•Cost of painting the blackboard is 35 paise per square centimeter.
To find :
•Cost of painting the blackboard.
Solution :
Since the values are given in decimetre, we will first convert the units.
For length :-
1 dm = 10 cm
•°• 17 dm = 17(10) = 170 cm
Length of the blackboard = 170 + 7
•°• Length (l) = 177 cm
For breadth :-
\rightarrow→ \bold{Breadth=11(10)}Breadth=11(10)
\rightarrow→ \bold{Breadth=110}Breadth=110
•°• Breadth(b) = 110 + 5 = 115 cm
So now we have the length and breadth of the black board in same unit. So let's find the area of the blackboard.
Area of blackboard :-
\rightarrow→ \bold{Area\:=\:length\times\:breadth}Area=length×breadth
Block in the values,
\rightarrow→ \bold{Area\:=\:177\times\:115}Area=177×115
\rightarrow→ \bold{Area\:=20355}Area=20355
•°• Area = 20355 cm²
Now, to find the cost.
Cost required will be area of the blackboard times cost of painting the blackboard per square centimeter
Cost of painting,
\bold{Area\:of\:blackboard\times\:rate\:per\:square\:centimeter}Areaofblackboard×ratepersquarecentimeter
\rightarrow→ \bold{20355\times\:35}20355×35
\rightarrow→ \bold{712425}712425
•°• Cost of painting the blackboard at the rate of 35 paise per square centimeter is ₹ 7, 12, 425.
