Question

Each side of a square plot of land is 55 m. Find the cost of fencing the plot at the rate of ₹ 32 per meter.​

Answer 1

Step 1: Calculating the length of the fence
Given
The length of the each side of the square$=55m$
The perimeter of the square plot is given by:
$P=4\times \left(side\right)$
$P=4\times \left(55\right)$
$P=220m$

We know that,
The length of the fence = perimeter of plot = $220m$

Step 2: Calulating the cost of fencing at the rate of 32 per meter
Cost of fencing the plot
$=Lengthoffence\times rateoffencing$
$=220\times 32=₹7040$
Hence,the cost of fencing the field is $₹7,040$.
