Andreas garden is shaped like a parrelelogram with a base length of 6.5 meters and a height of 4.8 meters. She wants to increase the area by doubling the base length and increasing the height by 1.5 meters. By how much will the changes increase the area of the garden. Explain please.

area of parallogram = base x heigh

= 6.5(4.8) = ..

new dimension:
base = 13
height = 6.3

new area = 13(6.3)
= ....

take the difference
