a rectangular lawn is 60m by 40m and his two roads each 5m wide running in the middle of it one parallelto its length and other parallel to its breadth . Find the cost of constructing the roads at rupees 80 per metersquare
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the rectangular lawn is given as 60m and breadth is given as 40 m.
The road is to be constructed in the middle of the lawn 5 m wide .
Now we have to find the cost of constructing the road in the middle of the lawn.
Area of the road is area of both rectangles formed in the center - area of the square at the center.
Area of road = Sum of Area of rectangles formed at centre - area of square at center
Area of road = (60 × 5) + (40 × 5) - (5 × 5)
Area of road = 300 + 200 - 25 = 475 sq. m
Now cost of constructing the road per sq. m = Rs. 75 per sq. m
Now cost of constructing the total road = 75 × 475 = Rs. 35625
