Solution

1. Break Down the Problem

To find the amount of extra wheat in the special offer packet, we need to calculate 25% of the original amount of wheat, which is 480g.

2. Relevant Concepts

The formula to calculate a percentage is given by: Percentage Amount=(Percentage100)×Original Amount \text{Percentage Amount} = \left( \frac{\text{Percentage}}{100} \right) \times \text{Original Amount}

3. Analysis and Detail

In this scenario:

  • Original Amount = 480g
  • Percentage = 25%

Now, we substitute the values into the formula:

Extra Wheat=(25100)×480g \text{Extra Wheat} = \left( \frac{25}{100} \right) \times 480g

4. Verify and Summarize

Calculating the expression: Extra Wheat=0.25×480g=120g \text{Extra Wheat} = 0.25 \times 480g = 120g

Final Answer

There are 120g of extra wheat in the special offer packet.
