Question

Fencing the compound of a house costs Rs. 5452. If the rate is Rs. 94 per metre find the
perimeter of the compound. If the breadth is 10 m, find its length.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Perimeter = total fencing cost / cost of 1 metre

P = 5452/94 = 58m

58 = 2(l+b)

58 = 2(l+10)

58/2 = l+10

29 = l + 10

l = 29 - 10

l = 19

Therefore the length of the rectangle is 19m
