Question

a rectangular garden is 175m long and 96m broad. find the cost of fencing it at Rs.1.50 per metre

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

The length of the rectangular garden=(l)=175m

The breadth of the rectangular garden(b)=96m

Perimeter of the rectangle=2(l+b) units

=>P=2(175+96)m

=>P=2(271)m

=>P=542 m

The perimeter of the rectangular garden=542m

The cost of fencing the rectangular garden per 1 meter=Rs. 1.50

The cost of fencing the rectangular garden per 542 m

= 542×1.50

= Rs. 813

The total cost of fencing the rectangular garden is Rs. 813

Answer 2

Given :-

• A rectangular garden is 175m long and 96m broad if cost of fencing it at Rs.1.50 per metre

To find :-

• Total cost of fencing a rectangular garden

Solution :-

• Length of rectangular garden = 175m

• Breadth of rectangular garden = 96m

As we know that

→ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)

Where " l " is length and " b " is breadth of rectangle.

According to the given condition

→ Perimeter of rectangular garden

→ 2(l + b)

→ 2(175 + 96)

→ 2 × 271

→ 542 m

Now,

• Cost of fencing it at Rs.1.50 per metre

→ Total cost of fencing

→ 1.50 × 542

→ Rs.813

Hence,

• Total cost of fencing is Rs.813
