Answers
Answer:
Ramana spent RS 2244 to fence his garden at the rate of RS 6/m .
Cost of Fencing (RS) Length (m)
RS 6 1m
RS 2244 ?
=2244/6
=374m
Hence , the perimeter of the garden is 374m .
Correct Question:-
Ramana had a rectangular garden 79 m wide. If he spent ₹ 2244 to fence it at ₹ 6 per m, find the area of his garden.
Answer:-
Given:
width of a rectangular garden = 79 m.
Total cost of fencing the garden = ₹ 2244
cost of fencing the garden per meter = ₹ 6
So,
Perimeter of the garden * cost of fencing the garden per meter = Total cost of fencing the garden.
We know that,
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth).
Let the length of the garden be L m.
Hence,
⟹ 2(L + 79) * 6 = 2244
⟹ L + 79 = 2244/(2 * 6)
⟹ L + 79 = 187
⟹ L = 187 - 79
⟹ L = 108 m
Hence,
- Length of the garden = 108 m.
Now,
Area of a rectangle = length * breadth
⟹ Area of the garden = 108 * 79
