The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the area of the walls of the dining hall. The formula for the area of the walls of a rectangular room is given by: \[ \text{Area of walls} = 2h(l + b) \] Where: - \( h \) = height of the hall = 16 m - \( l \) = length of the hall = 75 m - \( b \) = breadth of the hall = 60 m Substituting the values: \[ \text{Area of walls} = 2 \times 16 \times (75 + 60) \] \[ = 32 \times 135 \] \[ = 4320 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the area of the doors and windows. **Area of doors:** There are 5 doors, each measuring \( 4 \, \text{m} \times 3 \, \text{m} \). \[ \text{Area of doors} = 5 \times (4 \times 3) = 5 \times 12 = 60 \, \text{m}^2 \] **Area of windows:** There are 4 windows, each measuring \( 3 \, \text{m} \times 1.6 \, \text{m} \). \[ \text{Area of windows} = 4 \times (3 \times 1.6) = 4 \times 4.8 = 19.2 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the total area to be papered. Now, we subtract the area of the doors and windows from the total area of the walls: \[ \text{Area to be papered} = \text{Area of walls} - \text{Area of doors} - \text{Area of windows} \] \[ = 4320 - 60 - 19.2 \] \[ = 4320 - 79.2 = 4240.8 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the cost of papering the walls. The cost of papering is given at the rate of Rs. 12 per m². \[ \text{Cost of papering} = \text{Area to be papered} \times \text{Rate} \] \[ = 4240.8 \times 12 \] \[ = 50889.6 \, \text{Rs} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the area of the floor. The area of the floor can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Area of floor} = l \times b \] \[ = 75 \times 60 \] \[ = 4500 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the cost of carpeting the floor. The cost of carpeting is given at the rate of Rs. 25 per m². \[ \text{Cost of carpeting} = \text{Area of floor} \times \text{Rate} \] \[ = 4500 \times 25 \] \[ = 112500 \, \text{Rs} \] ### Final Answers: (i) Cost of papering the walls: Rs. 50889.6 (ii) Cost of carpeting the floor: Rs. 112500 ---
