if the length of a rectangle is doubled and the breadth is tripled. find the ratio of the original area to the new area of the rectangle
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
If the length of a rectangle is doubled and the breadth is tripled.
To Find :-
Ratio of the original area to the new area.
Solution :-
Let original length of rectangle be x
And original breadth of rectangle be y.
Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth
Original area = xy.
Length is doubled = 2x
Breadth is tripled = 3y
New area of rectangle = 2x × 3y
New area of rectangle = 6 xy
Ratio of original area to new area = Original/new area
Ratio of original area to new area = xy/6xy
Ratio of original area to new area = 1/6
Ratio of original area to new area = 1 : 6
Hence, the Ratio of original area to new area is 1 : 6.

If the length of a rectangle is doubled and the breadth is tripled. Find the ratio of the original area to the new area of the rectangle.
❥
•Let the length of the rectangle be= X.
•Let the breadth of the rectangle be= Y.
★
So, area of the rectangle= XY
★If the length of the rectangle is doubled ,
Then the length of the rectangle=2x
★ If the breadth of the rectangle is tripled,
Then the breadth of the rectangle=3y
Now ,
The area of the rectangle= 2x × 3y
=6xy
So, the ratio of the original area to the new area ,
Original area : New area
→ xy :6xy
→ 1:6
★
❥
The ratio of the original area to the new area is 1:6.
