☆Hello friend☆

Initial Area = length×breadth
If dimensions increased by 2
New Area= 2length×2breadth
New Area=4 × Initial Area

Initial Area= 12×10cm
=120cm^2
New Area= (2×12)cm×(2×10)cm
=24cm×20cm
=480cm^2
Area increased= 480cm^2/120cm^2
= 4 times

Plz mark its as brainliest if u like it☺

hii!!

here's ur answer...

given length of the rectangle is 12cm and breadth (width) is 10cm.

area of the rectangle = l×b

= 12×10

= 120cm²

if both the length and breadth of the rectangle is doubled, then the new length of the rectangle will be = 12×2 = 24cm

new breadth will be = 10×2 = 20cm

area of the new rectangle = l×b

= 24×20

= 480cm²

no. of times area of the New rectangle is more than original rectangle = 480/120

= 4

hence 4 times the area of new rectangle is more than the area of the original rectangle.

hope this helps..!
