Example Question #292 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Kellie is a maltipoo, meaning he is half poodle, half maltese. Kellie then has a litter with Frankie, who is half chihuahua, half pug. What percentage maltese will the puppies be?
50 percent
75 percent
0 percent
25 percent
25 percent
Because Kellie is half maltese, if she has puppies, then those puppies will be half of the breed mixture that she is. If she is half maltese, she is 50 percent maltese. Half of 50 percent is 25 percent. Therfore, 25 percent is the correct answer.
