15m and breadth 40m; the height of the fence is 2m. The cost of painting is Rs 20 per square

meter. Each line of code must have an explanation regarding its purpose as a comment beside

the code line itself.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

l = 15 #length of the plot

b= 40 #breadth of the plot

h = 2 #height of fence

p = 2*(l+b) #Perimeter of the plot

print ("Length of the plot=",l,'m','\n','Breadth of the plot=",b,'m','\n',"Height of the plot=",h,'m') #Display all the dimensions

f = p*h # Area of the fence

c = 20 # Cost of painting per metre square

print ("Cost of painting per metre square= Rs.", c, 'per m**2')

Cost = f*c #Area multiplied by cost

print ("Total cost of painting the fence of rectangular plot = Rs.", Cost) #Display final cost

print ("Thank You")
