The area of a courtyard is 3750 m

Question:

The area of a courtyard is 3750 m2. Find the cost of covering it with gravel to a height of 1 cm if the gravel costs Rs 6.40 per cubic metre.

Solution:

$1 \mathrm{~cm}=0.01 \mathrm{~m}$

Volume of the gravel used $=$ Area $\times H$ eight $=(3750 \times 0.01)=37.5 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$

Cost of the gravel is Rs $6.40$ per cubic meter.

$\therefore$ Total cost $=(37.5 \times 6.4)=$ Rs 240
