Best Answer

An area cannot be 15 cm since cm is a measure of distance, not area. But suppose the area is 15 cm2.

Then there are an infinite number of possible answers:

Let b be any number such that 0 < b < 3.87 (there is an infinity of such numbers).

Then let l = 15/b

Then any rectangle of length l cm and breadth b cm will have an area of 15 cm2.

If you double the side lengths of a rectangle why is the area of the new rectangle not twice as big as the original?

Look at it this way, suppose x is one side of the rectangle and y is the other. Then the area of the rectangle would be xy. Now if you double each side of the originial rectangle you would have each side as 2x and 2y. So the area of the new rectangle would be 2x*2y or 4xy. As you can see the new area is 4 times larger than the original.
