The approximate increase in Area of the parking lot is about 133%
Area of a rectangle = Length × width
Initial Area of parking lot :
- 75 feets × 150 feets = 11250 ft²
New Area of parking lot :
Width = 75 + 100 = 175 feets
Length = 150 feets
Area = 175 × 150 = 26250 ft²
Percentage increase in Area of lot :
((16250 - 11250) / initial Area) × 100%
(15000 / 11250) × 100% = 133.33%
Therefore, the approximate increase on area of lot is 133%
