Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Dimensions of class room = 7m × 6m ×3.5m

Where,

Length = 7m, Breadth = 6m , Height = 3.5 m

Area of four walls (including doors & windows) =

=

Then,

Area of walls without doors & windows =

= area including doors & windows – area occupied by doors & windows

Area of only walls = 91 – 17 = 74 m²

So,

Cost of white washing 1 m² area of walls = Rs.1.50

∴ Total cost of white washing = 74 × 1.50 = Rs.111
