Last month, when Joe took his puppy to the veterinarian, the puppy weighed 4.6 pounds. This month, the puppy weighed 5.98 pounds. What is the percentage increase of the weight of the puppy? a.30%b.23%c.77%d.1%

Respuesta :

percent increase : (new number - original number) / (original number)....then multiply that by 100 to get ur percent.

(5.98 - 4.6) / (4.6) = 1.38/4.6 = 0.3......0.3 x 100 = 30% <==
