The weight gained by Cricket within the 1-year period would be 8.75 or 8 3/4 pounds.

  • Cricket weighed 3 3/4 pounds initially and 12.5 pounds after one year.

  • In order to calculate the weight gained within the said period, the initial weight would be subtracted from the final weight.

Thus:

Weight gained = 12.5 - 3 3/4

                         = 12.5 - 3.75 or 12 1/2 - 3 3/4

                            =  8.75 or 8 3/4
