parcel a weighs 5 grams parcel b weighs 5.5 grams express parcel b weight as a percentage of parcel a weight
To express parcel B's weight as a percentage of parcel A's weight, we need to use the following formula:
Percentage = (Parcel B weight / Parcel A weight) x 100%
Substituting the given values, we get:
Percentage = (5.5 / 5) x 100%
Percentage = 110%
Therefore, parcel B's weight is 110% of parcel A's weight.
To express parcel B's weight as a percentage of parcel A's weight, you need to divide the weight of parcel B by the weight of parcel A and then multiply by 100.
1. Divide the weight of parcel B (5.5 grams) by the weight of parcel A (5 grams): 5.5 / 5 = 1.1.
2. Multiply the result by 100 to convert it to a percentage: 1.1 x 100 = 110%.
Thus, parcel B weighs 110% of the weight of parcel A.
