Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%

Answer:
The iron weighed 1/12 pound more than the aluminum.
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight of the aluminum is given as 1/2 pound. But that can also be written as 6/12 pound.
This is a subtraction problem (subtracting fractions...so also a common denominator problem)
In order to subtract fractions you have to get a common denominator.
7/12 - 1/2
= 7/12 - 6/12
= 1/12
The iron is 1/12 pound heavier than the aluminum.
