What is the cost of laying artificial grass over 80m by 120m rectangular playing field if grass comes in 6m wide strips and cost £85 for 10m.
So 80 m by 120 m or 9600 m^2 have to be covered.
each 6 m by 10 m section or 60 m^2 costs £85
so we need 9600/60 or 160 of these sections.
at a total cost of £85(160) or £13600
Assuming the 6 m wide strips can be cut to any reasonable lengths
Well, let's do a little math here. The playing field is 80m by 120m, right? So, we need to cover an area of 80m x 120m = 9,600 square meters.
The grass comes in 6m wide strips, which means we'll need 9,600 square meters / 6m = 1,600 strips.
And each strip costs £85 for 10m, so 1,600 strips will cost £85 x 160 = £13,600.
But hey, I have a joke for you: Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field!
To calculate the cost of laying artificial grass over an 80m by 120m rectangular playing field, we need to break it down into individual strips and then calculate the total cost.
1. Calculate the number of 6m wide strips needed:
- The length of the field is 120m and the width of the grass strip is 6m, so we need (120m / 6m) = 20 strips in the length direction.
- The width of the field is 80m and the width of the strip is 6m, so we need (80m / 6m) = 13.33 strips in the width direction. Since we can't have a fraction of a strip, we'll round it up to 14 strips.
2. Calculate the total number of strips:
- Since we need 20 strips in the length direction and 14 strips in the width direction, the total number of strips needed is 20 x 14 = 280 strips.
3. Calculate the total cost:
- The cost of each strip is £85 for 10m.
- Since each strip is 6m wide, the cost per strip is (£85 / 10m) x 6m = £51 per strip.
- To calculate the total cost, we multiply the cost per strip by the total number of strips:
Total cost = £51 x 280 = £14,280
Therefore, the cost of laying artificial grass over an 80m by 120m rectangular playing field would be £14,280.
To find the cost of laying artificial grass over an 80m by 120m rectangular playing field, we need to first calculate the total area of the field.
The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width. In this case, the length of the field is 120m and the width is 80m. So, the total area of the field is 120m * 80m = 9600m².
Next, we need to calculate the area covered by each strip of grass. Since the grass comes in 6m wide strips, the area covered by each strip is 6m * 10m = 60m².
Now, we can determine the number of strips required to cover the entire field by dividing the total area of the field by the area covered by each strip. Therefore, the number of strips required is 9600m² / 60m² = 160 strips.
Finally, to find the total cost of laying artificial grass, we need to multiply the number of strips by the cost of each strip. The cost of each strip is £85 for 10m, so the cost per strip is £85 * (6m / 10m) = £51. The total cost is £51 * 160 = £8160.
Therefore, the cost of laying artificial grass over the 80m by 120m rectangular playing field would be £8160.
