Question

On awall of dimension10.5m long and 8.5 m wide, a square shaped wall posture is stuck at the centre whose one side measures2.5m. If the remaining part of the wall is to be painted at rate ₹ 12 per sq. M, how much does it cost?

Answer 1

₹996

Explanation:

Area painted = area of wall - area of wall posture

Area of a rectangle = length x breadth

= 10.5m x 8.5m = 89.25m^2

Area of a square

length x length

2.5m x 2.5m = 6.25m^2

Area painted = 89.25m^2 - 6.25m^2 = 83m^2

Total cost of area painted = 83m^2 x 12 = 996
