A rectangular field has length three times the breadth and the perimeter is 800m. Find the cost of digging the ground at Rs8 per meter^2.

Rs240 000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and breadth of the rectangular field be represented by l and b respectively.

Thus,

l = 3b ............. 1

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)

The perimeter of the given rectangle = 800 m, so that;

800 = 2(l + b)

l + b =

       = 400

l + b = 400 ............... 2

But, l = 3b. So that,

3b + b = 400

4b = 400

b =

   = 100

b = 100 m

l = 3b

 = 3 x 100

l = 300

The length of the rectangular field is 300 m, while its breadth is 100 m.

Area of the rectangular field = l x b

                        = 300 x 100

                        = 30 000

Area of the rectangular field is 30 000 .

Cost of digging the ground at the rate of Rs8 per = Rs8 x 30 000

                                            = Rs240 000

dont trust me im no expert these losers made me fail a test bro this sucks
