Calculation of the cost of fencing of a square field
Given, the cost of labelling a square field is 26225 rupees at the rate of 1.25 rupees per metre. We need to find the cost of fencing the field at the rate of 1.80 rupees per metre.
Formula used:
The formula used to calculate the cost of fencing a square field is:
Cost of fencing = Perimeter of the field x Cost per metre
Calculation:
Let the side of the square field be 'a'.
As the square field is given, the perimeter of the field will be 4a.
According to the given information, the cost of labelling the field is 26225 rupees at the rate of 1.25 rupees per metre.
Therefore, the length of each side of the square field is:
a = Total cost of labelling/ Cost per metre
a = 26225/1.25 = 20980 metres
Therefore, the perimeter of the square field is:
Perimeter = 4a = 4 x 20980 = 83,920 metres
Now, the cost of fencing the field is given as 1.80 rupees per metre.
Therefore, the total cost of fencing the field will be:
Total cost = Perimeter of the field x Cost per metre
Total cost = 83,920 x 1.80 = 151,056 rupees
Answer:
Therefore, the cost of fencing the square field at the rate of 1.80 rupees per metre is 151,056 rupees.
