If the length of a rectangle is increased by 25% and the width decreased by 20%, what is the change in the area of the rectangle?


A 20% decrease

B 10% decrease

C 5% decrease

D 0%

E 5% increase


Note: The answer is D. Why is the answer 0%?

Can you draw a rectangle to visually explain what's going on here?
