Question

Please help me!!!

As a puppy, Cricket weighed 3 3/4 pounds. At her 1-year check-up with the vet, Cricket weighed 12.5 pounds.


How much weight did Cricket gain between the time she was a puppy and her 1-year check-up?


Enter your answer as a decimal or simplified mixed number in the box.

Answer 1

8.75

Explanation:

The answer is weight at 1-year check-up minus puppy weight.

3 and 3/4 can be rewritten as 3.75

12.5 - 3.75 = 12.50 - 3.75 = 8.75

Cricket gained 8.75 pounds.

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day!
