Question

A panther cub weighs 890 grams. At birth the cub weighed 450 grams. What is the percent increase in the panther cub's weight rounded to the nearest whole number?

Answer 1

Answer: 98%

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract the birth weight from the new weight (890-450=440). To find what percent of 450 that is, divide the difference by 450 (440/450=97.78). Round to the nearest whole number (97.78==>98).
