Question

The cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 350m at the rate of rs.18.50 metre is rs.22200.find its breadth.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of fencing = Rs. 18.50/m

total cost = Rs. 22200

perimeter = 22200/18.50 = 1200m

perimeter = 2(length + breadth)

thus, 1200 = 2(length + breadth)

1200 = 2(350 + breadth)

1200 = 700 +2b

2b= 1200 - 700

2b = 500

b=500/2

breadth = 250m
