By doubling each dimension the area of a parallelogram increased from 36 square centimeters to 144 square centimeters. find the percent of increase in area

The percentage of increase in area will be 300%

Explanation

By doubling each dimension, the area of a parallelogram increased from 36 square centimeters to 144 square centimeters.

So, the increased area =  Final area - Initial area  = (144 - 36)cm² = 108 cm²

Now, for finding the percentage of increase, first we need to divide "the increased area" by the "initial area" and then multiply by 100%

Thus, the percentage of increase in area %
