Answer:
44 Percent
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Original Length = x
and Original Breadth = y
therefore Original Area = xy
Increased Length = x + x/5 = 6x/5
therefore Increased Width = 6y/5
therefore Increased Area = 6x/5 × 6y/5 = 36xy/25
Total Increased % of Area = 36xy/25/xy × 100
= 36/25 × 100 =144%
Increased% of Area = 144 - 100 %
= 44%
