The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how much percent the area of a rectangle will exceed when its length is increased by 23% and its breadth is increased by 9%, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the original dimensions of the rectangle Let the original length (L) of the rectangle be 100 units and the original breadth (B) be 100 units. ### Step 2: Calculate the original area of the rectangle The area (A) of a rectangle is given by the formula: \[ A = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth} \] So, the original area is: \[ A = 100 \times 100 = 10000 \text{ square units} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the new dimensions after the increase - The new length after a 23% increase: \[ \text{New Length} = L + (23\% \text{ of } L) = 100 + (0.23 \times 100) = 100 + 23 = 123 \text{ units} \] - The new breadth after a 9% increase: \[ \text{New Breadth} = B + (9\% \text{ of } B) = 100 + (0.09 \times 100) = 100 + 9 = 109 \text{ units} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the new area of the rectangle Now, we can calculate the new area (A') using the new dimensions: \[ A' = \text{New Length} \times \text{New Breadth} \] \[ A' = 123 \times 109 \] Calculating this: \[ A' = 123 \times 109 = 13407 \text{ square units} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the increase in area To find the increase in area, we subtract the original area from the new area: \[ \text{Increase in Area} = A' - A = 13407 - 10000 = 3407 \text{ square units} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the percentage increase in area To find the percentage increase in area, we use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage Increase} = \left( \frac{\text{Increase in Area}}{\text{Original Area}} \right) \times 100 \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Percentage Increase} = \left( \frac{3407}{10000} \right) \times 100 = 34.07\% \] ### Final Answer The area of the rectangle will exceed by **34.07%**. ---
