Simplification:

Jordan's dog weighs $p$ pounds
Emmett's dog weighs 25% more than Jordan's dog
how much is Emmett's dog?

because Emmett's dog weighs 25% more, this means that it weighs the amount of Jordan's dog plus 25% more of Jordan's dog

this would be $p+0.25p$ wouldn't you agree?
and simplifying/adding like terms, it would be $1.25p$
