- From II, let l = 4x, b = 6x and h = 5x.
Then, area of the hall = (24x2) m2.
From I. Area of the hall = 24 m2.
From II and I, we get 24x2 = 24 x = 1.
l = 4 m, b = 6 and h = 5 m.
Thus, area of two adjacent walls = [(l x h) + (b x h)] m2 can be found out and so the cost of painting two adjacent walls may be found out.
Thus, III is redundant.
