The gestation period of humans(266 days) is_________ percent longer than the gestation period of grizzly bears (220 days).
The gestation period of humans is approximately 20% longer than that of grizzly bears. So, as humans, we really take our time marinating in the womb, while grizzly bears are more like "Let's get this show on the road!"
To calculate the percentage difference in the gestation period between humans and grizzly bears, we can use the following formula:
Percentage difference = ((Humans' gestation period - Grizzly bears' gestation period) / Grizzly bears' gestation period) * 100
Let's substitute the values into the formula:
((266 - 220) / 220) * 100 = (46 / 220) * 100 = 20.91%
Therefore, the gestation period of humans is approximately 20.91% longer than the gestation period of grizzly bears.
(266 - 220) / 266 = ?
Multiply the decimal answer by 100 to find the percent.
