pounds. Three months later he weighed 13 stone

initial weight, correct to 1 d.p.​

Answer 1

Answer:

At the start  of the diet Kerrin weighted 14*14+8 = 196+8=204 pounds

Three  month  later                                   13*14+6=182+6=188 pounds

188=p% from 204

188=204p/100

188*100=204p

p=18800/204=92.156≅ 92.2
