Question

Find the cost of fencing a rectangular plot 45m long and 37m wide if the cost of fencing is $45.59 per meter.

Answer 1

Given data says

• Length of rectangle = 45m

• Breadth of rectangle = 37m

To find the cost of fencing first of all we will find the perimetre of given rectangle

Perimetre of rectangle = 2 x (l+b)

= 2 x (45 + 37)

= 2 x 82m = 164

We get 164m perimetre of rectangle

Cost of fencing = $45.59

To completely find the cost of fencing

P X Rate of fencing ( multiply perimetre with cost of fencing per metre)

So, 164 x 45.59

=7476.76

So the cost of fencing the rectangular plot is 7476.76
