Sarah increase the amount of carbs she eats everyday from 225g to 325 grams. What percentage did Sarah increase the amount of carbs she eats? Round to the nearest tenth.

The answer to your question is 44.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Initial amount = 225 g

Final amount = 325 g

Process

Let the initial amount of carbs be the 100%. Use proportions and cross multiplication to find the answer to this problem.

                      225 g 100%

                      325 g   x

                      x = (325 x 100) / 225

                      x = 32500 / 225

                      x = 144.4

-Subtract the result to 100%

Percentage of increase = 144.4 - 100

                                        = 44.4%
