One Way:
We can change the mixed number to a decimal for comparing.
m = 
m = 1.25 m
1.4 m > 1.25 m
Darren > Luke
Darren's jump was higher by (1.4-1.25) 0.15 m
Or another way change the decimal to a fraction and the mixed to an improper fraction too.
= (Luke)
1.4 =
(Darren)
We need a common denominator to compare
(Luke)
(Darren)
(Luke)
(Darren)
Darren > Luke
By:
- = 
Which is also by 0.15 m
Darren jumps higher and by 0.15 m

It would be a 12.5% increase. First you find her monthly wages: $10.50 x 160 hours= $1680 a month. Her insurance is $210/month. So you need to find what percentage 210 is of 1680. So 
. Solve for x by dividing 1680 on both sides and you get 0.125. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage and you get 12.5%. Check your answer by multiplying 1680 x 0.125 and you get 210.
