An order was placed for the supply of a carpet whose breadth was 6 m and length was 1.44 times the breadth. What be the cost of a carpet whose length and breadth are 40% more and 25% more respectively than the first carpet. Given that the ratio of carpet is Rs. 45 per sq. m ?  Choose the most appropriate option:  A) Rs. 4082.40  B) Rs. 1024.21  C) Rs. 2810.6  D) Rs. 3214  E) NONE OF THESE
Explanation:   Length of the first carpet = (1.44)(6) = 8.64 cm   Area of the second carpet = 8.64(1 + 40/100) 6 (1 + 25/100)   = 51.84(1.4)(5/4) sq m = (12.96)(7) sq m   Cost of the second carpet = (45)(12.96 x 7) = 315 (13 - 0.04) = 4095 - 12.6 = Rs. 4082.40   Rs. 4082.40NSWER IS Rs. 4082.40
