A rectangular grassy plot is 125m long and 74m broad it has a path 2.5m wide all around it on the inside find the cost of levelling the path at rupees 6.80 per metre square.
- Length of the plot is 125m
- Breadth of the plot is 74m
- Wide of the plot inside is 2.5m
- Cost of levelling the path is at rupees 6.80 per metre square.
- Total cost of levelling the path
○ Kindly see the attachment.
We know that:-
Area of a rectangle = (l×b) square units
Where,
- l is length
- b is breadth
Area of the plot outside
= 125m × 74m
= (125×74) sq. m.
= 9250 square meters
Now, as the wide of the path is 2.5m all around inside of the plot:-
Length of the plot inside:-
= 125m - 2.5m - 2.5m
= 120m
Breadth of the plot inside:-
= 74m - 2.5m - 2.5m
= 69m
Area of the plot inside:-
= 120m × 69m
= (120×69) sq. m.
= 8280 sq. m.
Area of the path:-
= 9250sq.m. - 8280sq.m.
= (9250-8280) sq. m.
= 1000sq.m.
Hence, the cost of levelling the path:-
= Rs. (1000 × 6.80)
= Rs. 6,800
Hence, the cost of levelling the path is Rs. 6,800
Answer:
A rectangular grassy plot is 125 M long and 74 M broad it has a path 2.5 M wide all around it on the inside find the cost of levelling the path at rupees 6.80 per metre square. Answer : The cost of levelling the ground is = ₹6936
