For this problem, we would have to subtract the larger number of dogs by the smaller number of dogs. Zaierr has 10 dogs, and Lamarr has 2 dogs. We would have to subtract the number 10 by the number 2 to get our answer.
8%=0.08 and 100%=1 (100% represents the original weight in percentaje) If x is the weight you can express: 1x-0.08x=15.1 solve for x: 0.92x=15.1 x= 15.1/0.92=16.1 The original weight was 16.41 ounces
