Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Perimeter of rectangle

= 2 (Length + Width)

If width and length are increased by 10%

New length= L + 10/100L = (1.1) L

New width = W + 10/100W = (1.1) W

Perimeter = 2 [(1.1) L + (1.1) W]

Perimeter = 2 (1.1) (L + W)

Perimeter = (2.2) (L + W)

Increase in perimeter = 2.2 (L + W) - 2 (L + W)

The increase in Perimeter = 0.2 (L + W)

Percent increase

= 0.2 (L + W)/2 (L + W) × 100

= 0.2/2 × 100

= 0.1 × 100

= 10%
