In a garden, roses and marigolds are planted in square plots. The length of the squire plot in which marigolds are planted is three meters greater than the length of the square plot in which roses are planted. How much bigger in area is the merigold plot then the rose plot?
Let the length of the side of rose plot = l metres
and the length of the side of marigold plot = (l+3) metres
Now,
Their respective areas =
Difference in their areas is
Thus, Bigger in area is the marigold plot than the rose plot =3(2l+3)
