Answer:
12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous grams of protein = 48g
Present grams of protein = 54g
By what percentage did Amanda increase the amount of protein she eats?
Percentage increase in the amount of protein = (present grams - previous grams) / previous grams × 100
= (54g - 48g) / 48g × 100
= 6g/48g × 100
= 1/8 × 100
= 0.125 × 100
= 12.5%
Percentage increase in the amount of protein = 12.5%
