The cost of fencing a square field is Rs.16 per meter is Rs.32,000. Find the cost of reaping the field at Rs.35 per m^2

Answer 1

Answer :

Cost of reaping of the field at Rs 35 m² is Rs 87500 .

Step-by-step explanation :

Given :

• Cost of fencing a square field is Rs 16 per meter is Rs 32000

To find :

• We need to find the cost of reaping the field at Rs 35 per 100 m² [Correction in the question ]

SoluTion :

We know that,

➟ Perimeter of the Sq. field = Total cost / cost of fencing

➟ 4 x Side = 32000/16

➟ 4 x Side = 2000

➟ Side =500 m

Now,

➟ Total Area of sq. field = (Side)²

➟ Total Area of sq. field = (500)²

➟ Total Area of sq. field = 250000 m²

Also,

➟ Cost of reaping = Rate × Area

➟ 35/100 × 250000

➟ 35 × 2500

➟ Rs 87500

Hence, Cost of reaping of the field at Rs 35 m² is Rs 87500 .
