The document discusses percentage and provides three examples of calculating percentage increase in product weight. It states that percentage is a number expressed as a fraction of 100. It then shows calculations for three products - coffee mate, chips fuego, and ruffles - where the net weight is given and there is a 20% or 19% increase in weight. The calculations multiply the net weight by the percentage to get the increase amount, then add that to the net weight to get the total weight after percentage increase. In conclusion, it summarizes that percentage increase finds the change amount and adds it to the original amount to calculate the total.
