Detailed Solution

Given that length of hall is 45 m and width are 32 m. And the rate for a 1.2 m wide carpet is Rs. 40 per metre.
Then, area of hall = length×width.
Area of hall =45×32
Area of hall =1440 m2
Cost for per meter square = 14401.2
Then cost of carpet = 14401.2×40
Cost of carpet =Rs. 48000
When cost of 80 cm width at rate Rs. 25 per meter.
Then cost per meter =14400.80.
Then cost of carpet = 14400.80×25
Cost of carpet =Rs. 45000 So, cost of carpet when rate for a 1.2 m wide carpet is Rs. 40 per metre is Rs. 48000 and when rate for a 1.2 m wide carpet is Rs. 40 per metre then cost is Rs. 45000.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
