old (first visit): 550 grams
second visit: gained 350 grams
third visit: gained 300 grams
new: cora's kitten is now 1200 grams.
-> now, we must find the percent increase between 550 and 1200.
to find percent increase, we use this equation
new - old / old x 100
-> (1200 - 550 / 550) x 100
(650 / 550) x 100
= 1.18 x 100
<u>percent increase: 118% </u>

✧ hope this helped!
