Question

Find the cost of levelling a playground 51 meter long and 40 meter wide at $35 per spuare meter . Also , find the cost of fencing it at $ 50 per meter ?

Answer 1

Find the area:

Area = Length x Breath

Area = 51 x 40 = 2040 m²

Find the cost of levelling:

1 m² = $35

2040 m² = 35 x 2040 = $71,400

Find the perimeter:

Perimeter = 2 ( Length + Breadth)

Perimeter = 2 (51 + 40) = 182 m

Find the cost of fencing:

1 m = $50

182 m = 50 x 182 = $9100

Answer: The cost of levelling is $71,400 and the cost of fencing is $9100
