Length of a class room is two times its height and its breadth is `1 1/2` times its height. The cost of white-washing the walls at the rate of `R s .1.60\ p e r\ m^2` is `R s .179.20.` Find the cost of tiling the floor at the rate of `R s .6.75\ p e r\ m^2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

given that,
`l=2h`
`b=(3/2)h`
The cost of white-washing the walls`=Rs 179.20`
rate`= Rs 1.60`
so total area of wall`=179.20/1.60`
`=112m^2`
`2h(l+b)=112`
...
