Answer: [1 Mark]
Given that
The cost of painting is Rs10 percm2.
The length of the rectangular wall=400 cm
The breadth of the rectangular wall=900 cm
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth
On substituting the values we get
Area of the rectangle = (400) × (900)
= 360000 cm2
Money required to paint the rectangular wall = (10) × (360000)
= Rs.3600000
The diameter of the circular wall= 126 cm.
Radius of the wall, r=1262= 63 cm
The area a circle is given by, Area=π×r2
On substituting the values we get
Area of the circular wall=227×63×63=12474 (cm^2\)
Money required to paint the circular wall=12474×10=Rs 124740
The total cost of painting=3600000+124740 = Rs 3724740
Hence, the total cost of painting the walls is Rs 37,24,740.
