Question 1:
The perimeter of a rectangular plot is 340 m. Find the cost of gardening 1 m broad boundary around it at the rate of Rs 10 per sq. m.
A. Rs 3450
B. Rs 3400
C. Rs 3440
Feedback Given 2(l+b) = 340
1 m broad boundary means increase in l and b by 2 m
So area of the boundary will be [(l+2)(b+2) – lb] = 2(l+b) + 4 = 340 + 4 = 344
So cost of gardening = 344*10 = 3440
D. Rs 3880
