600 grams because if you sum the 1200 to 550 you get 650 so because you have the 650 the nearest number is 600

Answer: 118%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cora's kitten weighed in the last visit to the veterinarian's office=550 grams

Right now, Cora's kitten weighs =1200 grams

Increase in the kitten's weight= $1200-550=650\text{ grams}$

Percent increase in weight= $\frac{650}{550}\times100$

$=118.18\%\approx118\%$

Hence, there is 118% increase in kitten's weight.
