The percent increase in area of the picture is 40.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original area of the rectangular picture that measures 6 in by 9 in will be
Area= L*W
Area= 6*9= 54 in²
Increasing the dimensions by 1+ 1/3 larger will be
6+1+1/3 = 22/3
9+1+1/3=31/3
New area= 22/3 * 31/3 =682/9 = 75.78 in²
Increase in area = 75.78 - 54 = 21.78
Percent increase in area= percent increase/original area *100
Percent increase in area= 21.78/54 *100 = 40.33%
