How much would it cost to paint the walls of a room10 m long, 8 m wide and 4 m high, if painting 1 m²costs 6.50?​

Answer»

Before, finding the answer. LET's find out we can find the answer.

  • In this question, we are asked to find the COST of painting the walls of a ROOM.
  • So, to find that, we must find the Lateral Surface Area of the Cuboid. To find the Lateral Surface Area, we must use the formula of :

\boxed{\sf Lateral \: Surface \: Area \: of \:Cuboid = <klux>2</klux> h (l+ b)}

  • After finding the Lateral Surface Area, we must multiply the cost of painting with the Lateral Surface Area.

Given :

  • Length = 10 m
  • Breadth = 8 m
  • Height = 4 m
  • Cost for Painting = Rs. 6.50

To find :

  • cost to paint

Solution :

Lateral Surface Area  = 2 h (l+ b)

                                    = 2 × 4 × (10 + 8)

                                    = 2 × 4 × (18)

                                    = 2 × 72

                                    = 144 cm²

Cost for Painting = Cost of Painting × Lateral Surface Area

                            = 6.50 × 144

                            = 936

Therefore, the Cost of Painting the walls of the room is Rs. 936.
