    We know that 98mm is the 100% of the diameter of the plant before James watered with the magical solution; after he watered, the diameter of the plant grew to 188.869mm. Let be the grew in the percentage of the diameter. Now we can establish a ratio and solve for X:

    Now that we know the diameter of the plant grew 192.7%, we just need to divide that quantity by 100% to find how many times the diameter grew:We can conclude that the diameter of the peach become approximately 1.9 times larger after James watered it.
