A) 22% B) 33%
C) 44% D) 55%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 44%

Explanation:

Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres.

Original area = xy sq.m 

Increased length  = 120100 and Increased breadth = 120100 

 

New area = 120100x*120100y=3625xy m2 

 

The difference between the Original area  and New area  is:  

3625xy-xy

 

1125xy Increase % =1125xyxy*100= 44%
