A door of length 2 m and breadth 1 m is fitted in a wall. The length of the wall is 4.5 m and the breadth is 3.6 m. Find the cost of white washing the wall, if the rate of white washing the wall is ₹ 20 per m2.



Answer -

Given: Length of wall = 4.5 m
Breadth of the wall = 3.6 m
Length of the door = 2 m
Breadth of the door = 1 m
Area of the wall = l × b = 4.5 m × 3.6 m = 16.20 m2
= 16.20 m2

Area of the door = l × b = 2 m × 1 m = 2 m2
Areaof the wall to be white washed = Area of the wall – Area of the door
= 16.20 m2 – 2 m2= 14.20 m2
Cost of white washing
= ₹ 14.20 × 20 = ₹ 284.00
Hence, the required area = 14.20 m2 andthe required cost = ₹ 284
