Question

Caleb’s puppy weighs 2,250 grams. If the puppy weighed 600 grams at his last visit to the veterinarian’s office, what is the percent increase in the puppy’s weight rounded to the nearest whole number?

Answer 1

Weight of Celeb's puppy in last visit = 600 grams
Current weight of the puppy = 2250 grams

Difference in the previous and current weight = 2250 - 600 = 1650 grams

The formula to calculate the percentage difference is:

(Difference in the values / Original Value) x 100%

Using the values, we get:

Percentage Difference =
`(1650)/(600)` x 100% = 275%

Thus, the weight of Celeb's puppy increased by 275% since his last visit to the Veteran's Office
