Answer:

108 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing by 50% means multiplying the original quantities by 1.5, that is

100% + 50% = 150% = 1.5 ( 100% is the original dimensions ), thus

new length = 1.5 × 8 ft = 12 ft

new width = 1.5 × 6 ft = 9 ft

Thus

Area = length × width = 12 × 9 = 108 ft²

One hour on earth is four hours on planet S.
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The answer is 60 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We could use proportions to solve.

\frac{1 \: hour \: on \: earth}{4hours \: on \: planet \: s}  =  \frac{x}{240hours \:  on \: planet  \: s}

4 \times x = 4x \\ 1 \times 240 = 240

\frac{4x}{4}  =  \frac{240}{4}  \\ x = 60
