The dimensions of a rectangular swimming pool are 10m by 6m, customers want the pool built 1/4 of the length and a third of its width wider. What are the new dimensions of the pool, calculate the area

1 answer

the way I read it:
new length = 10 + (1/4)(10) = 25/2
new width = 6 + (1/3)(6) = 8

new area = (25/2)(8) = 100 m^2
