Question

What will be the cost to put a triple fence of wire around a square-shaped plot of land with side 50 m at the rate of rupees 25 per metre?

Answer 1

The cost of triple fencing of wire around the square shaped plot is Rs. 15,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Side of square shaped plot = 50 m

Cost of 1 m wire =Rs. 25

We have to find out the cost of fencing around the plot.

Solution,

Since the plot is in square shape and fencing is done all around.

So we calculate the perimeter of the plot.

Perimeter of the plot is equal to 4 times side length of the plot.

Framing in equation form, we get;

$Perimeter= 4\times side$

On putting the values, we get;

$Perimeter=4\times50=200\ m$

Now according to question, triple fencing of wire is done around the square-shaped plot.

So total length of wire is equal to 3 times perimeter of the plot.

Total length of wire =$3\times Perimeter=3\times200=600\ m$

Total cost of wire is calculated by multiplying total length of wire by cost of 1 meter of wire.

We can frame it in equation form as;

Total cost of wire = Total length of wire × Cost of 1 m wire

On putting the values, we get;

Total cost of wire =$600\times25=Rs.\ 15,000$

Hence The cost of triple fencing of wire around the square shaped plot is Rs. 15,000.
