Given:

The length of the rectangular room = 4.5 m

The breadth of the rectangular room = 4 m

The height of the rectangular room = 3 m

Area of white washing its walls and the roof = l x b + 2(l + b)h m2

= 4.5 x 4 + 2(4.5 + 4)3 m2

= 18 + 2 x 8.5 x 3 m2

= 18 + 51 m2

= 69 m2

Rate of white wash = ₹ 15 per square metre

Total cost of white washing = Area x Rate of white wash

= ₹ 69 x 15

= ₹ 1,035

Hence, the cost of white washing walls and roof of rectangular room is ₹ 1,035.
