Area Problems
The breadth of a rectangle is 25 m. The total cost of putting a grass bed on this field was ? 12375, at the rate of ? 15 per sq m. What is the length of the rectangular field?
Area to the rectangular field = 12375/15 = 825 sq mAccording to the question, (L x B) = 825 [L = length and B = breadth]? L x 25 = 825 ? L = 825/25 = 33 m
Area to be plastered = [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b) = {[2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)} m2 = (444 + 300) m2 = 744 m2. ∴ Cost of plastering = Rs. ❨ 744 x 75 ❩ = Rs. 558
