The length and the breadth of a rectangular piece of land is 500 m by 300 m respectively.
Find:
(i) Its area
(ii) The cost of the land, if 1 m2 of the land costs Rs. 10,000.
It is given in the question that,
Length of rectangular piece of land = 500 m
Breadth of rectangular piece of land = 300 m
(i) We know that,
Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth
= 500 × 300
= 150000 m2
∴ Area of rectangular piece of land = 150000 m2
(ii) It is given in the question that,
Cost of 1 m2 land = Rs 10,000
Hence,
Cost of 150000 m2 land = 10000 × 150000
= Rs 1500000000
