Answer:
14400
Step-by-step explanation:
let, length = 3x
breadth = 2x
area = 3456 = L * b
3456 = 3x * 2x
3456 = 6x^2
x^2 = 576
x = 24
length = 3x = 3 * 24 = 72
breadth = 2x = 2 *24 = 48
perimeter = 2(l + b)
= 2(72 + 48)
= 2 * 120
= 240
1m = 60
240 m = 240 * 60 = 14400

Answer:
The length and breadth of a rectangular field are in ratio 3:2 If area of field is 3456 sq m then find the cost of fencing it at rupees 60per m
- Ratio of length and breadth = 3:2
- Area of field is 3456 m²
- Let the length be 3x
- Let the breadth be 2x
- cost of fencing is 60 per m
- cost of fencing = ?
Area of field = Length × Breadth
➡️ 3456 = 3x × 2x
➡️ 3456 = 6x²
➡️ x² = 3456/6
➡️ x² = 576
➡️ x = √576
➡️ x = 24
- length = 3x
➡️ 3 × 24
➡️ 72 m
- Breadth = 2x
➡️ 2 × 24
➡️ 48 m
- Perimeter = 2×(l+b)
➡️ 2×(72+48)
➡️ 2× 120
➡️ 240 m
- cost of fencing = perimeter × rate
➡️ 240 × 60
➡️ rupees 14400
