Question

Find the cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 175 m and breadth 125 m at the rate of Rs 12 per meter.

Answer 1

Length of the park = 175 m
Breadth of the park = 125 m
Perimeter of the park = 2$\times$(Length + Breadth)
= 2 $\times$(175 + 125)
= 2 $\times$ 300 = 600 m
Rate of fencing = Rs. 12 per meter
Cost of fencing = Rs. 12 $\times$ 600 = Rs. 7,200
