Answer:
So, now the length is 150% of the width of the rectangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the width of the rectangle is 24 in the length of the rectangle is 75% of its length.
We calculate the length of the rectangle. We have the following proportion:
[tex]24:100\%=x:75\%\\\\100x=24\cdot 75\\\\100x=1800\\\\x=18\\[/tex]
So the length of the rectangle is 18.
If the length of the rectangle is doubled, it will be 36. We have the following proportion:
[tex]24:100\%=36:x\%\\\\24x=3600\\\\x=150\%[/tex]
So, now the length is 150% of the width of the rectangle.
