Question

find the cost of fencing a rectangular park 80m long and 68 m wide at rupees 8.80 per metre​

Answer 1

The length and breadth of a rectangular park is given

length = 80 m

breadth = 68 m

We will first find out the perimeter of the park

perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth )

                = 2 ( 80 + 68 )

               = 296

Now, we have to find the cost of fencing

cost of fencing per meter = 8.80

cost of fencing 296 meter = 296 × 8.80

                                           = 2604.8

Hence, the cost of fencing the rectangular park will be Rs. 2604.8

Answer 2

Answer:

The cost of fencing a rectangular park 80m long and 68 m wide at rupees 8.80 per meter is 2604.8 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given:

Length of the rectangular park = 80 m

Width of the rectangular park = 68 m

To find out:

To find the cost of fencing the rectangular park at rupees 8.80 per meter.

Solution:

We have to find the perimeter of the rectangle. The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all 4 sides or two times the sum of the length and breadth. That is,

  P = 2(l + b)

Where 'l' and 'b' are the length and breadth respectively.

By substituting the values,

⇒    P = 2(80 + 68)

         = 2(148)

         = 296 m

⇒ Therefore,

    the cost of fencing = perimeter × rate = $296\times 8.80=2604.8$ Rs
