Solution

The correct option is A 9.37%

Let the increase in the breadth be x%

% increase in area =(100+% increase in length) × (100+%increase in breadth)100100

75=(100+60)×(100+x)100100

175=160×(100+x)100

17500160=100+x

Thus, x=9.375%


माना कि चौड़ाई में की गई वृद्धि x%

क्षेत्रफल में % वृद्धि =(100 + लम्बाई में % वृद्धि)×(100 + चौड़ाई में % वृद्धि)/100- 100

75=(100+60)×(100+x)100100

175=160×(100+x)100

17500160=100+x

अतः , x=9.375%
