Answer 2

Concept introduction:

Area of carpet is Breadth of carpet times length of carpet.

Explanation:

Given that, Carpet whose breadth was $6 m$ and length was $1.44$ times the breadth.

We have to find, the cost of new carpet.

According to the question,

Breadth of carpet is $6m$.  Therefore length of carpet is $1.44*6=8.64m$.

Breadth of new carpet is $1.25*6=7.5m$ and length of carpet is $1.4*8.64=12.096m$.

Area of new carpet is $7.5*12.096=90.72m^{2}$

Therefore cost of new carpet is $90.72*45=4082.4$

Final Answer:

A) Rs. 4082.40
