Ques:- If the side of a square is increased by 25% what will be the percentage increase in the area?
Recent Answer : Added by Muhammad Azeem Sheikh On 2022-09-02 17:03:42:

56.25 % is the right answer.
area of square = side ^ 2
at first, it was 100% , means 1
then, a side was enlarged to 25%, means now, 125% means new side is 1.25
taking square will give 1.5625
1.5625 – 1 = 0.5625
so, 56.25% increment in area.
