A room with inner-to-inner dimensions 4.8 m × 4.8 m is built by 20 cm thick walls all around. Calculate the central line length of walls.

  • A.22.6 m
  • B.20 m
  • C.15.9 m
  • D.14 m

Answer: B

The centre line of a wall lies half a wall thickness outside the inner face. For a room of 4.8 m x 4.8 m inner dimensions with 20 cm thick walls, each side of the centre-line rectangle is 4.8 + 0.2 = 5.0 m, so

\[ L = 4 \times 5.0 = 20\ \text{m} \]

The value 22.6 m would result from adding the thickness twice to each side (the outer dimension, 5.2 m, around), and 15.9 m and 14 m are not consistent with these dimensions.
