Weight after being cooked is 12.6 oz
Solution:
Given that,
When meat cooks, its weight increases by approximately 26%
Justin cooks a boneless chicken thigh that is 10 oz before cooking
To find: Predict its weight after being cooked
Therefore,
Weight after cooked = 10 + 26 % of 10
[tex]Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + \frac{26}{100} \times 10\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + 0.26 \times 10\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + 2.6\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 12.6[/tex]
Thus weight after being cooked is 12.6 oz
