Answer 1

The area of the rectangular hall is 85 m² and the cost of carpeting the hall would be Rs 8500.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the rectangular hall, we multiply the length and the breadth. So, the area of the hall is 10 m x 8.5 m = 85 m².

To find the cost of carpeting the hall, we multiply the area of the hall by the cost of 1 m² of carpet. So, the cost of carpeting the hall would be 85 m² x Rs 100/m²= Rs 8500.
