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
