Answer:

30 pounds

Explanation:

When multiplying with %, change it to decimal by dividing the % by 100, then multiply.

38% is 38/100 = 0.38 as decimal

So 78(0.38) = 29.64 pounds, which rounds to 30 pounds

Hello!

❖ Carla would weigh 30 pounds.

38/100 x 78 = 29.64

29.64 rounded to the nearest pound is 30.

So, Carla would weigh 30 pounds.
