Solution

The correct option is A I only

From Statement II

breadth =4x, length =6x and height =5x

Area of one wall =length×height=30x2=30 sq. m.

Therefore x=1

length =6, breadth =4 and height =5

Surface area of two walls =(length×height)+(breadth×height)

=30+20=50sq.m

Therefore, cost of painting two adjacent walls =5×50=250Rs.

Hence, only statement II and III are required.
