In a house a hall is 20 m long, 15m wide and 5m high. Its interior has to be covered with mat. What will be the total expenditure if it costs Rs. 60 per square m?  Select:
A) rs . 50000
B) rs . 52000
C) rs . 57000
D) rs . 60000
E) rs . 67000

Rationale: "length ( l ) = 20 m , breadth ( b ) = 15 m and height ( h ) = 5 m total area of the hall to be covered with mat = 2 ( lb + bh + hl ) = 2 ( 20 * 15 + 15 * 5 + 5 * 20 ) = 2 ( 300 + 75 + 100 ) = 2 * 475 = 950 sq . m total expenditure = 60 * 950 = rs . 57000 c"
Answer: C
