Puppy A is 3/4 as heavy as puppy B. Puppy C is twice as heavy as puppy A. If the weight of puppy B is 8 pounds, find the weight of puppy C.

Puppy B = 8 lbs.

Puppy A = 3/4 * 8 = 6 lbs.
Puppy C = 12 lbs.

12lbs

12 lbs

12

To find the weight of puppy C, we need to go step by step.

First, we are given that Puppy A is 3/4 as heavy as Puppy B. If Puppy B weighs 8 pounds, we can calculate the weight of Puppy A as follows:

Weight of Puppy A = (3/4) * Weight of Puppy B
Weight of Puppy A = (3/4) * 8 pounds
Weight of Puppy A = 6 pounds

Next, we are told that Puppy C is twice as heavy as Puppy A. To find the weight of Puppy C, we can multiply the weight of Puppy A by 2:

Weight of Puppy C = 2 * Weight of Puppy A
Weight of Puppy C = 2 * 6 pounds
Weight of Puppy C = 12 pounds

Therefore, the weight of Puppy C is 12 pounds.
