  1. Side of a square plot = 25 m
    ∴ Area of square plot = (side)² = (25)² = 625m²
    Length of the house = 20 m and
    Breadth of the house = 15 m
    ∴ Area of the house = length x breadth = 20 x 15 = 300 m²
    Area of garden = Area of square plot – Area of house
    = 625 – 300 = 325 m²
    ∵ Cost of developing the garden per sq. m = ₹ 55
    ∴ Cost of developing the garden 325 sq. m = ₹ 55 x 325
    = ₹ 17,875
    Hence total cost of developing a garden around is ₹ 17,875.
