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%
