Answers
Question:-
The cost of fencing a circular field at the rate of Rs. 24 per m is Rs. 5280. The field is to be ploughed at the rate of Rs. 0.50 per m². Find the cost of ploughing the field.
Answer:-
Let the radius of the field be r m.
Given:
Cost of fencing the field per m = Rs. 24
Total cost of fencing = Rs. 5280.
We know,
Perimeter = Total cost of fencing/Cost of fencing per m.
So,
⟶ Perimeter of the field = 5280/24
⟶ Perimeter of the field = 220 m
Now,
Perimeter/Circumference of a circle = 2πr
⟶ 2πr = 220
⟶ r = 220 × (1/2) × (7/22)
⟶ r = 35 m
And also given that,
Cost of ploughing the field = Rs. 0.50/m
We know,
Area of a circle = πr²
⟶ Area of the field = (22/7) * (35)²
⟶ Area of the field = 3850 m²
Now,
Total cost of ploughing = Cost of ploughing × Area of the field
So,
⟶ Total cost of ploughing = 0.50 × 3850
⟶ Total cost of ploughing = Rs. 1925
∴ It costs Rs. 1925 to plough the field.
Answer:
✯ Given :-
- The cost of fencing a circular field at the rate of Rs 24 per m is Rs 5280.
- The field is to be ploughing at the rate of Rs 0.50 per m².
✯ To Find :-
- Find the cost of ploughing of the field.
✯ Solution :-
⋆ Given :-
» Total, cost of fencing the circular field is Rs 5280
» Rate of fencing the circular field is Rs 24 per m
» Rate of ploughing the circular field is Rs 0.50 per m²
➽ We know that, Length of the circular field,
✪ ✪
⇒
⇒220 m
» Let, the radius be r
➙ Circumference = 220 m
➣ According to the question,
⇒2πr = 220
⇒r =
⇒r =
⇒r = 35 m
↦ Radius of the field is 35 m
➼ Again, we know that, Area of the circular field = πr²
⇒ × (35)²
⇒ × 35 × 35
⇒ 22 × 5 × 35 m²
➠ 3850 m²
Hence, the cost of ploughing the field,
⇒3850 × 0.50
➨ Rs 1925
The cost of ploughing the field is
