Step 1

Identify dimensions: l=1.5l = 1.5 m, b=1.25b = 1.25 m. Height h=65h = 65 cm = 0.650.65 m (Unit consistency is key!).

Step 2

Since it is open at the top, we need the LSA + Area of Bottom base.

Step 3

Area = 2h(l+b)+lb2h(l+b) + lb.

Step 4

2(0.65)(1.5+1.25)+(1.5×1.25)2(0.65)(1.5 + 1.25) + (1.5 \times 1.25).

Step 5

1.3(2.75)+1.875=3.575+1.875=5.45 m21.3(2.75) + 1.875 = 3.575 + 1.875 = 5.45 \text{ m}^2.

Step 6

Cost = Area ×\times Rate = 5.45×205.45 \times 20.

Final Answer

Area: 5.45 m², Cost: ₹109
