Question

In February Lana got a puppy that weighed 13 kilograms.By October the puppy weighed 17.16 kilograms.What was the percent the puppy's weighed increased

Answer 1

32 percent the puppy's weighed increased.

Explanation:

In February Lana got a puppy that weighed 13 kilograms.By October the puppy weighed 17.16 kilograms.

Original weighed = 13 kilogram

Final weighed = 17.16 kilogram.

Increase in weighed = 17.16-13 = 4.16 kilogram.

Now to find the percent the puppy's weighed increased.

Percent =
`(increase weighed)/(original weighed) * 100`

Percent =
`(4.16)/(13) * 100 = 32 \%`

Hence, the percent the puppy's weighed increased was 32%.
