Answer the following question, with explanation first.
Before James starts the strength phase training of his cycle he has a powerlifting total of 2200 pounds at a bodyweight of 245 pounds. He manages to gain 15% on his total and 8 pounds of body weight. What is the ratio of his lifting total to bodyweight?

10
He added 2200 *.

15 = 330 pounds to his total.

That means his new title is 2200 + 330 = 2530 pound total.

His new body weight is 245 + 8 = 253 pounds.

So he has 2530 / 253 = 10 for his ratio.

.

Thus, the answer is 10
