Answer 1

length of garden =120 - 3.8
leaving road.
l =116.2m

(breadth of garden=85 - 3.5
leaving road. ) b =81.5m

(area of grass. =l*b
covered ). =116.2*81.5
=9470.3m

(cost of grass. =(area of covered grass)*(cost of
covering) per
meter squar)
=9470.3*50
=473514.99. Paisa
=473514.99/100
=4735.1499 rupees
