Answer:
a) 69.36 square meters
b) 242,760 cost of tiles
c) 332,928 total paid for patio
Explanation:
A rectangular patio is 10.2 m long 6.8 m wide
a) calculate the area of the patio
b) If tiles cost # 3500/m^2, calculate the cost of tiling the patio
c) If the cost of labour is 1300 /m2.
Calculate the amount paid for the patio
---------------------------------------------------
Area of the patio is length x width:
10.2 x 6.8 = 69.36 square meters
---------------------------------------------------
Tile cost = area x cost of tiles/square meter :
69.36 x 3500 = 242,760
---------------------------------------------------
Labour cost = area x cost of labour/square meter:
69.36 x 1300 = 90,168
----------------------------------------------
Total paid for the patio = cost of tiles + cost of labour
= 242,760 + 90,168 = 332,928
