Question

The cost of wall to wall carpating of floor of a room is Rs. 24,000. If the room is 20 m long and carpet costs Rs. 100 per m sq, find the breadth of the room

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello ,

cost of carpeting the wall = rs.24000

carpeting= area of the room

area of the room = rs. 24000/rs.100

                            = 240 m sq.

area of the room = length of the room x breadth of the room

           240 m sq.= 20 m x breadth of the room

breadth of the room = 240/20

                                  = 12 m

Good luck
