Find the cost of fencing a rectangular field 34 m 20cm long and 16 m 30 cm wide at Rs. 40 per meter.
What will be the cost of turfing it at Rs.21 per square meter ?
Answers
Answer:
Area of a rectangular =2 (L+B)
A long and wide field =2 ( 34.20+16.30)
=50.50 multiply 2
= 101 multiply 40
= ₹ 4040
Given :
- Length of field = 34.20 m
- Breadth of field = 16.30 m
- Cost of fencing = Rs 40 per m
- Cost of turfing = Rs 21 per m²

To Find :
- The cost of fencing the rectangular field
- The cost of turfing the rectangular field
______________________________
Solution :
★ Perimeter of field = 2 ( L + B )
→ Perimeter = 2 ( 34.20 + 16.30 )
→ Perimeter = 2 ( 50.50 )
→ Perimeter = 101 m
Cost of 1 m fencing = Rs 40
Cost of 101 m fencing = 40 × 101 = Rs 4040
______________________________
★ Area of field = L × B
→ Area = 34.20 × 16.30
→ Area = 557.46 m²
Cost of 1 m² of turfing = Rs 21
Cost of 557.46 m² of turfing = 21 × 557.46 = Rs 11,706.66
______________________________
Therefore :
⇒ Cost of fencing = Rs 4,040
⇒ Cost of turfing = Rs 11,706.66
