Given:

Length of the room= 5m

The breadth of the room= is 4m

Height of the room= 3m

To Find

Cost of whitewashing the walls of the room and the ceiling at the rate of Rs.7.50/ m²

Solution:

Since the four walls and ceiling is to be whitewashed, so it has 5 faces excluding the base

Hence, the total surface area to be whitewashed= Lateral surface area + area of the ceiling

                                                                               = 2(l+ b)h + (l× b)

                                                                               = 2( 5+ 4)×3 + (3×4) m²

                                                                               = 74 m²

Cost of whitewashing= Rs.7.50/m²

Cost of whitewashing the walls of the room and the ceiling= total area to be whitewashed × cost of whitewashing

                                                                     = 74 m² × Rs.7.50/m²

                                                                     = Rs.555

Thus, the cost of whitewashing the walls and ceiling of the room is Rs.555.

Answer:

555 Rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Length =5m

Breadth =4m

Height =3m

Area of room =2(l×b)+2(b×h)+(l×b)

=2(5×3)+2(4×3)+(5×4)

=2×15+2×12+20

=30+24+20

= 74m²

Cost of White washing wall in 1m²=7.50 rupees

Cost of white washing wall in 74m²= $7.50×74

$555
