Hence, Jake's running time in decimal is: 3.2 hours
Yes they are equal. 45 is a multiple of 15. 45/15=3, 7*3=21. so 21/45 is equal to 7/15.
Given:
yesterday = 270
today = 216
yesterday's number of tickets sold is the basis of the percent of change. So, 270 is the 100%.
270 - 216 = 54 * value of the change in ticket sales
54/270 = 0.20 x 100% = 20% * percent of change
There was a 20% decrease in ticket sales.
