We know that the side lengths of the square base are: x * x. The volume is 12, so for now, let's say that y is the other side length. Then, x * x * y = 12. We can solve for y: y = 12/x^2. Now, we find the surface area of the 5 sides.
Four of the sides have the same area: x * (12/x^2) = 12/x, so we multiply this by 4: 48/x.
The last side is the base: x * x = x^2.
We add 48/x to x^2:
x^2 + 48/x
So, the answer is the fourth choice, (d).

Im pretty sure that the answer is B.
The answer you're looking for is, x = 3,-5
That's a 33% increase.
I calculated this using the formula:
Where n = the new value (16 in your question), o = the old value (12 in your question) and the result is outputted as a percent increase. You can check that this is correct by finding 33% of 12, adding the result to 12, and checking that the result equals your "new" number.
Note that 33% is only an approximation as your question requires a number rounded to the nearest whole.
