Hi. Here is your Desired answer mate :)
Answer:
₹ 900
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the carpet
Width of the carpet to cover the floor with = 1m
Let the Length of the carpet to cover the floor with be x.
∵It is a rectangle.
∴Area will be=Length×Breadth
=1 × x m²
=x m²
Dimensions of the floor
Length: 10m
Breadth: 6m
∵It is a rectangle.
∴Area will be=Length×Breadth
=10×6 m²
=60 m²
Thus, the area of the floor is 60 m².
Now, to find the length of the carpet is required to cover the floor completely,
= Area of the floor ÷ Area of the carpet
=60 m² ÷ x m²
x = 60 m² ÷ m²
∴ x = 60 m
∴ Area of the carpet = 1 m × 60 m
= 60 m²
∵ Cost of 1 m² carpet = ₹ 15
∴ Total cost of the carpet = ₹ (60 × 15)
= ₹ (900)
= ₹ 900
∴ Total cost of the carpet is ₹ 900.
