    If each of the dimensions of a rectangle is increased by 100%, its area is increased by:

    A) 100%                          

    B) 200%

    C) 300%            

    D) 400%

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the initial length and width be \[l\] & b respectively. Then the initial area \[{{d}^{2}}=\frac{2464}{\frac{22}{7}}=3136\]. According to the question, New length and width will be \[d=\sqrt{3136}=56m.\] and 2b respectively \[2\pi r-r=37\] New area \[r=\frac{37}{2\pi -1}=\frac{37}{2\times \frac{2}{7}-1}=7m\]                 Increment in area \[6cm\]
