Question
Rectangle A has an area of 64 square meters. The length and width of rectangle B are 3 times the corresponding length and width of rectangle A. What is the area, in square meters, of rectangle B ?
The correct answer is: 576 sq. meters.
HINT:- Assume length and breadth of rectangle A and get equation in area equation for A and now using the 3 times of length and width condition find length and width of rectangle B and find the area of rectangle B using the previous area equation.
Explanation :- Area of rectangle A is 64 sq. meters
Step 1: assume length and width of rectangle A be l and b respectively
Then area of rectangle = length width = l b = 64 sq. meters (given)
Step 2 : given that the length and widths of rectangle B are 3 times that of rectangle A
So, L= 3l and B= 3b
So the area of rectangle B is= length width of rectangle B = 3l3b
= 9(l b)
But, l b=64 sq. meters
So, So the area of rectangle B = 9(l b) = 9(64) =576 sq. meters.
