pounds lost/original weight times 100 Say you weighed 200 pounds and lost 10 pounds, then the percent pounds lost is 10/200 x 100 = 5%
True
"Weight" is not measured in kilograms.If your mass was originally 150 kg and you lost 1 kg of mass, then you lost 2/3rds of 1 percent of your original mass.
The importance of a percent is that the percent means out of 100 and if you needed to find out a specific number you can use a percent to show how much or how many you need or have lost. The importance of a percent is because it helps people's jobs and it helps our world and our every day life uses percentages and we don't even know it.
