Question

Your friend is on a weight-loss program and

wants to reach a final goal weight of 160
pounds. His starting weight was 180 pounds. If
he has lost 8% of his body weight so far, how
many pounds does he still have to lose to reach
his final goal.

Answer 1

5.6lbs

Explanation:

multiply 180 by .08

8%=14.4

14.4-180=165.6

165.6-160= 5.6
