Cost PER square metre,

Rate of painting = 3200

Rate of tiling = $\frac{125}{100} * 3200$ = 4000

Rate of carpeting = $\frac{120}{100} * 4000$ = 4800

Rate of DECORATING = 14 * 4800 = 67200

Area of tiles on the walls = 2 * 0.25 * (6 + 6) = 6 sq. metre

Area of the floor = 6 * 6 = 36 sq. metre

Cost of decorating = 36 * 67200 = Rs. 2419200

Cost of tiling = (36 + 6) * 4000 = Rs. 168000

$\therefore$ Total cost = 2419200 + 168000 = Rs. 2587200

It is given that , 

I some trees are flowers ,

By using the information from above statements, we canfind out which conclusions follow the statements.

Clearly it is not I and III conclusions because, roads and vehicles are not RELATED to trees.

Conclusion IV is also not correct because all roads are vehicles does not mean all vehicles are roads.

So, the correct answer is 3). Only II follows

Sentence D STARTS the para as it introduces the writer who was listening to group of EGYPTIANS.

E should come in next as it tells that the author set all the facts that he COLLECTED while talking to Egyptians in his FILE of notes. E is followed by B which suggests that he verified the data with his guide book. Finally, C concludes the para by stating the reasons why the writer had been up to these activities.
