C) 68 D) 88
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 88

Explanation:

We have: l = 20 ft and lb = 680 sq. ft.

Q:

The length of a rectangle is halved, while its breadth is tripled. What is the percentage change in area?

A) 25% increase B) 50% increase
C) 50% decrease D) 75% decrease
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 50% increase

Explanation:

Let original length = x and original breadth = y.

Original area = xy.

 

New length = x/2 and New breadth = 3y.

New area = (x/2 * 3y) = (3/2 )xy

 

Therefore,  Increase % = [(1/2)xy * (1/xy) * 100] % = 50%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 814

Explanation:

Length of largest tile = H.C.F. of 1517 cm and 902 cm = 41 cm. 

Area of each tile = (41 x 41) sq.cm

Q:

A towel, when bleached, was found to have lost 20% of its length and 10% of its breadth. The percentage of decrease in area is:

A) 10% B) 10.08%
C) 20% D) 28%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 28%

Explanation:

Let original length = x and original breadth = y. 

 

Decrease in area = xy -[(80/100x) * (90/100y)]  

=[(xy-(18/25)xy)]

=(7/25)xy

Decrease % =[(7/25)xy * (1/xy) * 100] =28%
