Question

If each side of a rectangle is increased by 50% then its area will be increased by

Answer 1

Here is your answer > >

Let the length of rectangle be x

Let the breadth of rectangle be y

We know that

Area of recatngle=l×b

so, area of rectangle = x×y=xy

According to the question

New length of rectangle = 50x/100+x=3x/2

New breadth of rectangle = 50y/100+y=3y/2

New Area of rectangle = 3x/2×3y/2=9xy/4

% Increase in area= New area-Original area/Original area×100

=9xy/4-xy÷xy×100

=5xy/4÷xy×100

=5/4×100

=5×25

=125%

Hope it helps!
