LBO doubt

A has EV of $1B,EBITDA of $200M and is leveraged 2.5x.It wants to buy B which has EBITDA of $100M.A will finance the acquisition with $250M debt,How does this transaction affect leverage? (I know the answer is fairly available on the internet but wanted to understand the rationale behind it)
