Mathematics

Svetach [21]3 years ago

Answer:

The sides are increased by a percentage of 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the length side of the original square

y ----> the length side of the increased square

we have

\frac{x}{y} =\frac{4}{5}

y=\frac{5}{4}x

y=1.25x

the increase is calculated by subtracting x from y

so

y-x=1.25x-x=0.25x

Remember that

0.25=\frac{25}{100}=25\%

therefore

The sides are increased by a percentage of 25%

QveST [7]
To rewrite, all we have to do is apply the associative property of addition. It allows us to write the expression as <br /><br />y + (1 + 4) <br /><br />we could even take it one step further and combining our terms for<br /><br />y + 5
