Question

the area of a rectangle is 15%more than the breadth what is the breadth of the rectangle

Answer 1

let breth be= x
let area of rectangle be= x+(15x/100)
let lenght be = y
as we know
area of rectangle = lenght × breath

[x+(15x/100)]/x=y

[100x+15x/100]/x=y

(115x/100)/100=y

115x/10000=y
