Question

the length breath are in the ratio of 9:5.if the area of the field is 14580 square metre.then find the cost of the surrounding the field with a fence at the rate of 3.25 rupees per metre

Answer 1

It will cost 1638 rupees

Answer 2

Let the length of rectangle be 9x and its breadth be 5x

So,

Area = l × b

⇒ 14580 = 9x × 5x

45x2 = 14580

x2 = 14580/45 = 324

x = √324

x = 18

Hence,

Length = 9 × 18 = 162 m and Breadth = 5 × 18 = 90 m

Now, Perimeter = 2(l + b)

= 2 (162 + 90) = 2(252)

= 504 m.

Therefore, cost for fencing the surrounding 504 m at the rate of ₹3.25 per metre = ₹(504 × 3.25) = ₹1638
