The area of the new rectangle will be 25 times that of the original

Area of a rectangle

A rectangle is a 2D shape that has 4 sides and equal interior angles

If rectangle has a width of 2.45 feet and a length of 6.5 feet, then;

Width = 2.45 feet

Length = 6.5feet

A = 2.45 * 6.5

A = 15.925 square feet

If each side of the rectangle is increased by a factor of 5, hence;

W1 = 5(2.45) = 12.25feet

L1 = 5(6.5) = 32.5 feet

Determine the area of the new rectangle

A = 12.25 * 32.5

A = 398.125 square feet

Ratio of the area

A1/A = 398.125/15.925

A1 = 25A

Hence the area of the new rectangle will be 25 times that of the original
