Answer:
Let the length of the rectangle = l = 6 cm
The width of the rectangle = w = 4 cm
Area of the rectangle = A= l × w
= 6 × 4 = 24 sq cm
If the length is greater by 2
=> new length of rectangle = L = l + 2 = 6+2=8 cm
Area of new rectangle = A = 24
Width of new rectangle = W= ?
New rectangle area = L × W =>
A = L × W
24 = 8 × W = W = 3
