Solution

Step-1: Finding area of playground

Area of rectangle =length×breadth

=51×40=2040m2

Finding the cost of levelling a playground :

Cost of levelling 1m2=35Rs

Cost of levelling 2040m2=2040×35=71,400Rs

Hence, cost of levelling playground is 71,400Rs

Step-2: Finding perimeter of playground

Perimeter of rectangle =2(length+breadth)

=2(51+40)=2(91)=182m

Finding the cost of fencing :

Cost of fencing 1m=50Rs

Cost of fencing 182m=182×50=9,100Rs

Hence ,cost of fencing playground is 9,100Rs
