Detailed Solution

It is given a tank open at the top is made of an iron sheet 4 m wide and the dimensions of the tank are 12m×8m×6m   and the cost of an iron sheet at Rs. 17.50 per meter.
Consider the length of the sheet be x.
Evaluate the surface area of the tank,
S=2 bh+lh +lb  
Substitute the values,
S=2 8×6+12×6 +12×8  
Simplify the terms,
S=2 48+72 +96 S=2×120+96 S=336 m 2  
Evaluating the length of the sheet, l×4=336   m 2  
Divide both sides by 4  ,
  l= 336 4  
  l=84 m  
So, the total cost of the sheet is 84 ×  17.50=Rs.1470.
Hence option (1) is correct.
