a) Rs 500
b) Rs 510
c) Rs 530
d) Rs 540
correct answer is: b) Rs 510
Explanation
Here,
Length = 24 m
Breadth = 10 m
We know,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (length + Breadth)
\therefore Perimeter of the field is =2\times\left(24+10\right) m
\rightarrow\left(2\times34\right) m
\rightarrow68 m
Now,
1 meter fencing cost = Rs 7.50
\therefore 68 meter fencing cost = Rs \left(7.50\times68\right)
\rightarrow Rs 510
Ans: The cost of fencing the field is Rs 510.
