    The shaded part in the given figure is covered with cement. If it costs Rs. 84 to: cement an area of 3 cm2, find the total cost of cementing.

    A)  Rs. 8820                      

    B)  Rs. 8125

    C)  Rs. 8610                      

    D)  Rs. 8804

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     : Area of larger rectangle \[=(32\times 25)\,c{{m}^{2}}=800c{{m}^{2}}\] Also, area of smaller rectangle \[=485\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \] Area of shaded part \[=(800-485)\,c{{m}^{2}}=315c{{m}^{2}}\] Now, Cost of cementing of \[3c{{m}^{2}}=Rs.84\] \[\therefore \]  Cost of cementing of \[1\,\,c{{m}^{2}}=(84\div 3)\]                                     \[=Rs.28\] \[\therefore \]   Cost of cementing of \[315\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\] \[=Rs.\,(28\times 315)=Rs.\,8820\]
