A rectangular lawn 60 meters by 40 meters has two roads each 5 meters wide running in the middle of it one parallel to length and the other parallel to breadth
Area of the road=40×5+60×5−5×5
=200+300−25
=475sqm
Given,
Cost of graveling the roads =60 paise per sq meter.
∴475×60paise
=28500 paise
=Rs.285
