Based on ⟦illegible⟧
Located in the cemetery in ⟦illegible⟧
That the length of the walls is ⟦illegible⟧ m 22
If the wall intended to be built rises ⟦illegible⟧ above the base level, then the surface area
to be built is 412 m2, and in this case the wall will be far ⟦illegible⟧
And if the wall intended to be built rises ⟦illegible⟧ above the base level, then the surface area of the wall
to be built will be 2495 m2
The cost per square meter (brick, cement, plaster, and gypsum) is 750 fils,
And if you wish to know the cost of labor based on the statement, it would be 500 fils
