Answer:

120%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = cars weight

Since truck weighs 20% more,

Trucks weight = x + .20x =1.20x

To find the oercentage of trucks weight to car;s weight,

Truck weight ÷ car's weight

= 1.20x / x

= 1.20

= 120% when converting the decimal to a per cent

The trucks weight is 120% of the car's weight
