Question

The area of a square grou d is 6084 sq.m.It is fenced at the rateof Rs 40 per metre and ploughed at the rate of Rs20 per Square metre. Find the total cost.

Answer 1

Area of a square field = 6084m²

Area = side × side

6084= (side)²

=> Side = √6084

=> Side =78 m

Then,

---------

Perimeter = 4 × side

= (4 ×78) m

=312m

Therefore,

---------------------

Rate of fencing = Rs 40/ m

Cost of fencing the field = Rs ( 40 × 312) = Rs 12480

Rate of ploughing = Rs 20/ m^2

Cost of ploughing the field = Rs 20*6084=121680

Total cost = 12480+121680=Rs 134160
