Answer 2

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%
