    Question

    The perimeter of the floor of a room is 18 m. What is the area of the walls of the room, if the height of the room is 3 m?

    A.

    108 m2108\space\text{m}^2​​

    B.

    21 m221\space\text{m}^2​​

    C.

    54 m254\space\text{m}^2​​

    D.

    42 m242\space\text{m}^2​​

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    Perimeter of the floor = 18 m
    Height of the room = 3 m

    Formula Used:

    Area of walls = Perimeter of the floor × Height

    Solution:
    Perimeter of floor = 2(l + b)
    => 2(l + b) = 18
    => l + b = 9 m
    Area of walls = 2(l + b)h
    => 2 × 9 × 3
    => 54 m2
