Question

a rectangular grassy plot is 75 M long and 45 M broad it has a part of which 2 metre all around it on the inside find area of the path and the cost of constructing it at rupees 175 per metre square

Answer 1

answer ...............

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

Length of plot =75m

Breadth of plot =60m

Area of plot =l×b

=75×60=4500m  

2

 

Now,

Width of path =2m

Therefore,

Length of plot including path =75+2=77m

Breadth of plot including plot =60+2=62m

Therefore,

Area of plot including plot =77×62=4774m  

2

 

Therefore,

Area of path = Area of plot including path − Area of plot only

∴ Area of path =4774−4500=274m  

2

 

Given that cost of constructing path is Rs.125 per square meter.

Therefore,

Cost of constructing path around plot=125×274=Rs.34250.
