Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given length of poster = 10 cm and breadth of poster = 8 cm

Area of the poster = Length x Breadth

= 10 cm x 8 cm

= 80 cm^2

From the figure, it is clear that

Length of the cardboard when the margin is included = 10 cm + 1.75 cm + 1.75 cm

= 13.5 cm

Breadth of the cardboard when the margin is included = 8 cm + 1.75 cm + 1.75 cm

= 11.5 cm

Area of the cardboard = Length x Breadth

= 13.5 cm x 11.5 cm

= 155.25 cm^2

(i) Area of the margin = Area of cardboard including the margin – Area of the poster

= 155.25 cm^2 – 80 cm^2

= 75.25 cm^2

(ii) Cost of the cardboard = Area of cardboard x Rate of the cardboard Rs 0.60 per cm

= (155.25 x 0.60)

= Rs. 93.15
