This is Gabriel Brotman, a member of the eagle team from Mrs. Berger's 5th
grade class.
If I wore a backpack that weighed 2% of my body weight, my backpack would weigh
2.44 lbs. Mrs. Berger showed us how to find a percent of a number. I changed
the 2% into the equivalent decimal, .02 , and then multiplied my weight by it
and got 2.44 lbs.
