Answer 1

*Note that the question state that " 7 rupees 6 paise per metre square". After clarifying with the user, it is meant to be " 7 rupees 60 paise per metre square". Answer below is done according to the corrected information.

Find the perimeter:

Given that 1 m = Rs 18

Rs 18 = 1 m

Rs 1 = 1/18 m

Rs 4680 = 1/18 x 4680 = 260 m

Find the length:

Perimeter = 2( Length + Breadth)

260 = 2( Length + 50)

260  = 2 Length + 100

2 Length = 260 - 100

2 length - 160

Length = 160 ÷ 2 = 80 m

Find the area:

Area = Length x Breadth

Area = 80 x 50 = 4000 m²

Find the cost of levelling:

1 m² = Rs 7.60

4000 m² = 7.60 x 4000 = Rs 30,400

Answer: (a) The length is 80m (b) The cost is Rs 30,400
