John S, Henley on Thames, RG9:
365 times 0.14
Add 7
Divide by 7
= 8.3 weeks
= approx 8 and a half weeks old.

Charles R M:
Cat is 0.14 of one year, which is 14 % of 52 weeks,
which is 14/100 x 52/1
= 728/100
= 7.28
In one week's time, it will be:
8.28 weeks old (exactly).

Alan G, London NW5:
1/52 is almost 1/50.
1/50 is 0.02
0.14 + 0.02 = 0.16.
