The Egyptian government found that the famous pyramid at Giza, a national icon for Egypt, was in a bad state due to the erosion of the desert sand and the heat. They decided to repair and restore the pyramid to its former glory. The measurements of the inspection team found that the pyramid had an external rectangular base of 80 m by 60 m, and a height of 43 m. They decided to totally colour the external surface of the pyramid with sand-resistant and heat-resistant white paint. If each sq m required 1 liter of paint and the cost of each kilo-liter of the chosen paint was 1500 Egyptian pounds, what would be the expense of the government for the project (in Egyptian pounds), neglecting any other expense ? (All dimensions of the pyramid were calculated by the inspection team to the nearest integer)
