Question

A rectangular plot of land measures 95 m by 72 m. Inside the plot, a path of uniform width
of 3.5 m is to be constructed all around. The rest of the plot is to be laid with grass. Find the
total expenses involved in constructing the path at 80 per m' and laying the grass at 40
per m2
and 12m wide. A border of width 25 cm is nrinted along its sides Find​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs.318400

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangular plot=l×b=95m×72m=6840m^2

area of rectangular plot without path = (95m-2×3.5m)×(72m-2×3.5m)=(95m-7m)×(72m-7m)=88m×65m=5720m^2

area of plot=6840m^2-5720m^2=1120m^2

cost of constructing the path= Rs.80×1120=Rs.89600

cost of laying the grass=Rs.40×5720=Rs.228800

total cost=Rs.89600+Rs.228800=Rs.318400ans...
