What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, considering the weight increases by 15% every month, the August amount will be the July's amount multiplied by 1.15, hence:

A = 1.15 x 699.60 pounds = 804.54 pounds.
