Cost of ploughing at the rate of Rs. 10 per m2 is Rs. 1,540. Find theradius of the circular field. |

Answer» Cost of ploughing = total area x cost of poulghing per 1 ( or given ) metre . In the given question, Cost of ploughing per metre= Rs 10 per m^2 Cost of ploughing the whole area = Rs 1540 = > Total area x Rs 10 / m^2 = Rs 1540 = > Total area = Rs 1540 / Rs 10 m^2 = > Total area = 154 m^2 As the given field is circular in shape, it's area should be πr^2. Let the radius of the field be a, Area of the field = 154 m^2 ( from above ) = > ( 22 / 7 ) x a^2 = 154 m^2 = > a^2 = 154 x 7 / 22 m^2 = > a^2 = 7 x 7 m^2 = > a^2 = 7^2 m^2 = > a = 7 m Hence the radius of the circular field = 7 m. |
