Question- A sweater is 65% wool by weight. If the sweater weighs 12.4 ounces, how much wool is in the sweater? Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If 65% of the sweater is wool and the sweater weighs 12.4 oz, then the weight of the wool in the sweater is 65% of 12.4 oz. So, 65% = 0.65 and...
There are 8.06 ounces of wool in the sweater.
