Q:

A tank is 25 m long, 12 m wide and 6 m deep. The cost of plastering its walls and bottom at 75 paise per sq. m, is:

A) Rs. 456 B) Rs. 458
C) Rs. 558 D) Rs. 568
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 558

Explanation:

Area to be plastered= [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b)

= [2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)  

= (444 + 300)  

= 744 

 

Cost of plastering = Rs. 744 x (75/100)= Rs. 558

Q:

The length of a rectangular plot is 20 metres more than its breadth. If the cost of fencing the plot @ 26.50 per metre is Rs. 5300, what is the length of the plot in metres?

A) 40 B) 120
C) 50 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None of these

Explanation:

Let breadth = x metres.

Then, length = (x + 20) metres.

Perimeter = 5300 m = 200 m. 26.50

2[(x + 20) + x] = 200

2x + 20 = 100

2x = 80

x = 40.

Hence, length = x + 20 = 60 m.

Q:

The ratio between the perimeter and the breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 1. If the area of the rectangle is 216 sq. cm, what is the length of the rectangle?

A) 16cm B) 18cm
C) 24cm D) .Data inadequate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 18cm

Explanation:

2(l+b)/b = 5/1 

=> 2l + 2b = 5b  

=> 3b = 2l  

=> b =(2/3) x l

 Then, Area = 216 sq.cm 

 

l x b = 216  

=> l x [(2/3)x l] =216  

=> l x l = 324 

=> l = 18 cm.
