Question

The internal measures of a cuboidal room are 9m, 5m and 6m respectively. Find the total cost of
whitewashing all four walls of a room, if the cost of white washing is ₹ 5 per sq.m. What will be the cost of white washing if the ceiling of the room is also whitewashed.

Answer 1

Answer:

₹ 1290

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of the room = 2(LW + WH + LH)

TSA = 2(9*5 + 9*6 + 5*6)

TSA = 2(45 + 54 + 30)

TSA = 2(129)

TSA = 258

Hence the total surface area of the room is 258m²

If 1m² = ₹ 5

258m² = 5(258) = ₹ 1290

The cost of white washing if the ceiling of the room is also whitewashed is ₹ 1290
