The internal measures of a cuboidal room are with length as 12 m, breadth as 8 m and height as 10 m. The total cost (in ₹) of white washing all four walls of the room and also the ceiling of the room,if the cost of whitewashing is ₹25 per m2 is : |
12,400 12,000 18,000 13,600 |
12,400 |
We know that, Lateral surface area = 2(l + b)h Area of the rectangle = l × b We have, Length of the room = 12 m Breadth = 8 m Height = 10 m Cost of whitewash = 25 per m2 Area of ceiling = 12 × 8 = 96 Area of walls = 2 × 10 × (12 + 8) = 400 Total cost of whitewash = 25 × (400 + 96) = 12400 |
