Julia's great dane weighs 45 kgand Jake's chihuahua weighs 15 kg. How much bigger, as a percentage, is julia's dog?
Answer : The percentage will be, 200%
Step-by-step explanation :
First we have to calculate the excess weight.
Excess weight = 45 kg - 15 kg
Excess weight = 30 kg
Now we have to calculate the percentage of excess weight.
Percentage of excess weight = \(\frac{\text{Excess weight}}{\text{Weight of Jake's}}\times 100\)
Percentage of excess weight = \(\frac{30kg}{15kg}\times 100\)
Percentage of excess weight = 200 %
Therefore, the percentage will be, 200%
