Ans.
External faces to be polished
= Area of six faces of cuboidal bookshelf – 3 (Area of open portion ABCD)
= 2 (110 x 25 + 25 x 85 + 85 x 110) – 3 (75 x 30)
[AB = 85 – 5 – 5 = 75 cm and AD = (1/3 x 110) – 5 – 5 – 5 – 5 = 30 cm]
= 2 (2750 + 2125 + 9350) – 3 x 2250
= 2 x 14225 – 6750
= 28450 – 6750
= 21700 cm2
Now, cost of painting outer faces of wodden bookshelf at the rate of 20 paise.
= Rs. 0.20 per cm2 = Rs. 0.20 x 21700 = Rs. 4340
Here, three equal five sides inner faces.
Therefore total surface area
= 3 [ 2 (30 + 75) 20 + 30 x 75] [Depth = 25 – 5 = 20 cm]
= 3 [ 2 x 105 x 20 + 2250] = 3 [ 4200 + 2250]
= 3 x 6450 = 19350 cm2
Now, cost of painting inner faces at the rate of 10 paise i.e. Rs. 0.10 per cm2.
= Rs. 0.10 x 19350 = Rs. 1935
Total expenses required = Rs. 4340 + Rs. 1935 = Rs. 6275
