Solution

The correct option is D

₹17875


The side of the square plot is 25m, length and breadth of the rectangular region is 20m and 15m respectively.
Area of the square plot = side2=252=625sq.m.

Area of the rectangular region = length × breadth

20×15=300 sq.m.

Area of the garden = 625 - 300 = 325 sq.m.

Cost of developing the garden = Area × Rate per sq.m

325×55= 17875
