Solution
Given, side of one square flower bed = (x + 2) m
∴ Perimeter of one square flower bed = 4(Side) = 4(x + 2) m
Now, total perimeter of 5 such square flower beds = 5 × Perimeter of one square
= 5 × 4(x + 2)
= 20(x + 2) m
∵ Cost of fencing of 100 m = ₹ 50
∴ Cost of 1 m = ₹ `50/100`
∴ Cost of 20(x + 2) m = `50/100 xx 20(x + 2)`
= 10(x + 2)
= ₹ (10x + 20)

To find sum of three numbers 14, 27 and 13, we can have two ways:
- We may first add 14 and 27 to get 41 and then add 13 to it to get the total sum 54 or
- We may add 27 and 13 to get 40 and then add 14 to get the sum 54. Thus, (14 + 27) + 13 = 14 + (27 + 13)
