Question

Jay is letting her bread dough rise. After three hours, her bread dough is 11/5 of its original size.

What percent of its original size is Jay's bread dough?

Answer 1

original size of Jay's bread dough is raised to 220%

Explanation:

Let 1 be the original size of the bread

her bread dough is 11/5 of its original size.

`1* (11)/(5) = 2.2`

The original size of the bread is raised to 2.2

To get percentage we multiply by 100

2.2*100 = 220%

original size of Jay's bread dough is raised to 220%
