Answer:

The area of the new rectangle is;

$600\operatorname{cm}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area of a rectangle is;

$24\operatorname{cm}^2$

Let x and y represent the length and width;

$\begin{gathered} x* y=24 \\ xy=24 \end{gathered}$

If the length and width of the rectangle are multiplied by 5;

$\begin{gathered} A=5x*5y \\ A=25xy \end{gathered}$

recall that;

so, we have;

$\begin{gathered} A=25(24) \\ A=600\operatorname{cm}^2 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the area of the new rectangle is;

$600\operatorname{cm}^2$
