Step-by-step explanation:
Area excluding door and windows=4704/8.40=560m²
Total area=560 + 940 = 1500m²
Area of walls=2(36*h)+2(24*h)=2{36*h+24*h}=2(60*h)=120*h
1500=120*h
h=1500/120
Height is equal to 12.5m

length of hall = 36 m
and breadth of hall = 24 m
Let 'h' be the height of the hall.
Now, in papering the wall, we need to paper the four walls excluding floor and roof of the hall.
So, area of wall which is to be papered = lh + bh + lh + bh = 2h(l + b)
= 2h (36 + 24) = 120 h m2
Now, area leaves for door and windows = 80 m2
So, the area which is actually papered = (120h- 40) m2
Again, the cost of papering the walls at Rs 8.40 per m2 is equal to Rs 4704
(120h - 40)* 8.4 = 4704
120h - 40 = 560
120 h = 560 +40
120h=600
h = 5
The height of the hall is 5m .
