    A rectangular grassy plot 90 m. by 60 m has a gravel path 2.5 m wide all round it on the inside. Find the cost of gravelling the path at 50 paise per sq. metre.

    A)  462.3                          

    B)  362.5

    C)  562.4              

    D)       None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Area of the plot \[=(90\times 6){{m}^{2}}\]                                \[=5400\,{{m}^{2}}\] Area of the plot excluding the path \[=\left[ (90-5)\times (60-5) \right]\,\,{{m}^{2}}\] \[=4675\,\,{{m}^{2}}\] Area of the path \[=(5400-4675)\,{{m}^{2}}\]             \[=725\,\,{{m}^{2}}\] Cost of gravelling the path \[=Rs.\,725\times (50/100)=Rs.\,362.5\]
