Answer:

The caramel is $0 more than the chocolate. In other words, they cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 pounds of caramel and caramel costs $9/pound, the cost of 2 pounds of caramel can be found by this equation:

2lbs · $9 = $18

Since we have 1.5 pounds of chocolate and chocolate costs $12/pound, the cost of 1.5 pounds of chocolate can be found by this equation:

1.5lbs · $12 = $18

To find how much bigger the cost of caramel is than that of chocolate, we will subtract the total cost of the chocolate from the total cost of the caramel.

$18 - $18 = $0

Answer:

Think of investments. If you were to invest $100 into a company and receive $200 dollars, then you would have made $100 in profit, which is 100% of your initial amount. So, if you were to invest $100 and receive $250 dollars in profit, then you would have made an extra $150, which is even more than your initial amount of $100. In this case, you would have made a 150% increase on your money.
