Solution

Length of the hall (l) = 10 m

Breath of the hall (b) = 9 m

Height of the hall (h) = 8 m

Area to be white wash = L.S.A + Ceiling of the building

= 2(l + b)h + lb sq.units

= 2(10 + 9)8 + 10 × 9 sq.m

= 2 × 19 × 8 + 10 × 9 sq.m

= (304 + 90) sq.m

= 394 sq.m

Cost of white washing one sq.m = ₹ 8.50

Cost of white washing for 394 sq.m = ₹ 394 × 8.50

= ₹ 3349

Total cost of white washing = ₹ 3349
