Question

Find the cost of fencing a rectanglular plot of length 28 m and breadth 17 m, if the cost of fencing per m is Rs.20.

• A.
  Rs.1700
• B.
  Rs.1600
• C.
  Rs.2000
• D.
  Rs.1800

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Rs.1800
Let's find the perimeter of the plot to get the total cost of fencing.
Since it's a rectangle, opposite sides will be equal.

So, Perimeter = 28 + 17 + 28 + 17 = 90 m

Cost of fencing = 90 $\times$ 20 = Rs.1800
