Find the cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 175 cm and breadth 125 m at the rate of ₹ 12 per metre.
To find the cost of fencing a rectangular park with a length of 175 cm and a breadth of 125 m at the rate of ₹12 per meter, you'll first need to convert the length to meters since the rate is given in rupees per meter.
1 meter = 100 centimeters
So, the length in meters is 175 cm / 100 = 1.75 meters.
Now, you can calculate the cost of fencing using the formula:
Cost = Perimeter × Rate
For a rectangular park, the perimeter is given by:
Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Breadth)
Substitute the values:
Perimeter = 2 × (1.75 meters + 125 meters)
Perimeter = 2 × 126.75 meters
Perimeter = 253.5 meters
Now, calculate the cost:
Cost = 253.5 meters × ₹12/meter
Cost = ₹3,042
So, the cost of fencing the rectangular park is ₹3,042.
