Question

The cost of fencing a square field at Rs.16 per metre is Rs.32,000 find the cost of reaping the field that Rs.35 per hundred metre square

Answer 1

Answer:

87500 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of fencing a square field at Rs.16 per metre is Rs.32,000. This means that perimeter is given = 4 x side = 32000 / 16=2000 m.

Therefore, each side = 2000 / 4 = 500m

So area of field for reaping = 500 x 500 = 250000 sq. m

Cost per 100 sq.m =35 Rs

Cost = 250000 sq. m / 100 x 35 = 2500 x 35 = 87500 Rs.
