答案:D
解析:
Let l and w be the original length and width of the rectangle, respectively. If we denote by L and W the new length and width of the rectangle, respectively, then we have:
L = l + ((20/100)*l) = 1.2*l and W = w + ((30/100)*w) = 1.3*w
So, the new area will be:
A = L*W = (1.2*l)*(1.3*w) = 1.56*(l*w)
1.56*(l*w) = (l*w) + ((56/100)*(l*w))where (l*w) is the original area of the rectangle.So the area is increased by 56%.
