Solution
Let the radius of the circular field = r m
⇒ Circumference of the field = 2πr m
Now, the cost of fencing the circular field at Rs.250/m = Rs.55000
⇒ 2πr x 250 = 55000
⇒ `2 xx (22)/(7) xx "r" xx 250` = 55000
⇒ r = `(55000 xx 7)/(2 xx 22 xx 250)`
= 35m
Now, the area of the field
= πr2
= `(22)/(7) xx 35 xx 35`
= 3850m2
Thus, the cost of ploughing the field at the rate of Rs.15/m2
= Rs.15 x 3850
= Rs.57750.
