Question

Ajab khan is living in a flat of 7 marlas in Army flats. The property tax not paid for five years.How much tax is due at the rate of Rs.50 per square yard.(one marla=272 sq feet

Answer 1

Answer:

we are given that, One marla = 272 sq. feet

Area of Ajab khan’s flat is = 7 marlas = 7 * 272 sq. feet = 1904 sq. feet

Considering the tax rate per year = Rs. 50 per sq. yard

Since the rate is given in sq. yard so we will convert the area of the flat in sq. yard too.

1 sq. yard = 9 sq. feet

∴ 1904 sq. feet = (1904/9) sq. yard = 211.556 sq. yard

Thus,

The tax rate due for 5 years for the property of 211.556 sq. yard is,  

= (Rs. 50) * (211.556 sq. yard) * (5  years)

= Rs. 52,889
