You can set up a proportion to solve for the percentage of the coins that are pennies. Of course, there are alternate methods as well, but this is one method. First, you define the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be equal to a variable, such as x. Next, you write 240/600 = x/100, due to how "x" is the amount out of 100 (since per cent is for every cent (out of 100)), and 240 would correspond to x while 600 would correspond to 100. This proportion may also be written as 100/x = 600/240, or 240/x = 600/100. In order to solve for x, you use cross-products, or you multiply each denominator by the numerator of the other fraction. You will be left with a numerical value that's equal to a number times x, and then you divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x in order to isolate x. As a result, you will have the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be your answer. Remember to write the units for every numerator and denominator in your proportion.

Given:
Susie's dog is 2 feet tall. When she measures her dog in inches he was 24 inches.
To find:
Why is there an increase in inches.
Solution:
It is given that Susie's dog is 2 feet tall.
We know that,
1 feet = 12 inches
Using this conversion, we get
2 feet = 2×12 inches
2 feet = 24 inches
So, the measures 2 feet and 24 inches are equal.
Therefore, if Susie's dog is 2 feet tall then he is 24 inches tall because both of these measure are equal.
The answer to this problem is 60.6
