Answer 2

The overall cost to plough rectangular field of 45 x 37 m is Rs 73260.

Solution:

Given that dimension of rectangular shaped field =45 x 37 m

Price to plough field for 1 square meter = Rs 44

First let’s find area of rectangular field.

Area of rectangular field = length x breath  

= 45 m x 37 m = 1665 square meters

Given that price to plough field for 1 square meter = Rs 44

So price to plough 1665 square meter = 1665 x 44 = Rs 73260

Hence overall cost to plough rectangular field of 45 x 37 m is Rs 73260.
