A rectangular and square table are to be polished at the rate rupees 1...
From the given,
The rectangular table has dimensions 2 m x 3.75 m
The square table has side 4m.
Area of Rectangle =
length x
breadth
The area of rectangular table
= 2m x 3.75m = 7.5m2
Area of square table = side x side
= 4m x 4m = 16m2
So,
the rate for polishing is ₹ 125 per m2
Then, Total cost
= 125 x (7.5 + 16)
= 125 x 23.5
= 2937.5
Therefore,
The required answer is ₹
2937

A rectangular and square table are to be polished at the rate rupees 1...
Rectangular Table
- Dimension: 2 meters x 3.75 meters
- Area: length x width = 2 x 3.75 = 7.5 square meters
- Cost of polishing per square meter: Rs 125
- Total cost of polishing the rectangular table: 7.5 x 125 = Rs 937.50
Square Table
- Side length: 1 meter
- Area: side length x side length = 1 x 1 = 1 square meter
- Cost of polishing per square meter: Rs 125
- Total cost of polishing the square table: 1 x 125 = Rs 125
Total Cost
- Total cost of polishing the rectangular table: Rs 937.50
- Total cost of polishing the square table: Rs 125
- Total cost of polishing both tables: Rs 937.50 + Rs 125 = Rs 1062.50
Explanation:
To calculate the total cost of polishing the two tables, we need to find the cost of polishing each table individually and then add them together.
For the rectangular table, we first calculate its area by multiplying the length and width. The area is 2 meters x 3.75 meters = 7.5 square meters. The cost of polishing per square meter is given as Rs 125. Therefore, the cost of polishing the rectangular table is 7.5 square meters x Rs 125 = Rs 937.50.
For the square table, we already know its side length is 1 meter. The area of a square is calculated by multiplying the side length by itself, so the area of the square table is 1 meter x 1 meter = 1 square meter. The cost of polishing per square meter is Rs 125. Therefore, the cost of polishing the square table is 1 square meter x Rs 125 = Rs 125.
To find the total cost of polishing both tables, we add the cost of polishing the rectangular table (Rs 937.50) and the cost of polishing the square table (Rs 125). The total cost of polishing both tables is Rs 937.50 + Rs 125 = Rs 1062.50.
Therefore, the total cost of polishing the two tables is Rs 1062.50.
