A shed has dimensions of 12m in length and 5 m in width. Both the length and
width are increased by the same amount in order to increase the floor area by
more than double the original area. What is the amount of the increase in length?
It says, " Both the length and width are increased by the same amount..." this means that both 12m and 5m were increased. So 12 + 12 = 24 and 5 + 5 = 10.
