Mrs. Kaushik has a square plot with the measurement as shown in the figure. She wants to construct a house in the middle of the plot. A garden is developed around the house. Find the total cost of developing a garden around the house at the rate of Rs 55 per `m^2` .

Explanation

Given
Side of square =`25`m
Rate=Rs.`55`perm

Area of square `=side^2=25^2=625m^2`

Length and breadth of rectangle =`20`m and `15`m
Area of rectangle = length `xx breadth=lxxb=20xx15=300m^2`

.
Area of garden = Area of Rectangle - Area of Square
Area of garden `=625−300m^2`
Area of garden `=325m^2`

Cost of garden = `Area of gardenxxRate`
Cost of garden `=325m^2xxRs55`
Cost of garden `=Rs17875`
