Question

Part 1:

A year ago, Ray's puppy weighed 8 pounds. Now his puppy weighs 25 pounds
more. How much does Ray's puppy weigh now? Explain using pictures,
numbers, or words.

Answer 1

Puppy's current weight = 33 pounds.

Explanation:

The weight of Ray's puppy 1 year ago = 8 pounds

• Now, his puppy weighs 25 pounds more.

All we need is to add the 8 pounds to 25 to determine the current weight.

i.e.

current weight = 8 + 25

= 33 pounds

Therefore, puppy's current weight = 33 pounds.
