A proposed concrete pavement has a general dimension of 10 cm thick, 3 m wide, and 10 m long. a. Determine the quantity of cement in bags (40kg), sand, and gravel in cubic meters required using a class “B” mixture. b. If it cost P259.00 per bag (40kg) of cement, P1,300.00/m3 of sand, and P1,500.00/m3 of gravel, what is the total cost?
