20 = 5%
Length =21
12=3%
Bredth =6.4
Before area = 20×12
Now 21×6.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Original Rectangle:
Length = 20cm
Breadth = 15 cm
Therefore Area = 20 × 15
=300 cm^2
New Rectangle
Length = (5%of 20) + 20
= 21cm
Breadth = 15 - (3%of 15)
=15 - 0.45
=14.55 cm
Area = 21 × 14.55
=305.55 cm^2
Increased Area = 5.55 cm^2
Hope it helps you. This is the right answer.
