To get the *percent increase* from week 1 to week 2, we calculate the change in distance from week 1 to week 2 (13.5 - 12.5 = 1 mile) over the week 1 distance (12.5 miles). Doing that, we find that Matthew increased his distance by
1/12.5 = 0.08, or 8%
We’re given that he’ll increase his distance by the same percentage from week 2 to 3, so to find his week 3 distance, we can find 8% of the week 2 distance and add that on. 8% of 13.5 miles is 0.08 x 13.5 = 1.08 miles, so by week 3, he’ll be running 13.5 + 1.08 = 14.58 miles.
Answer:
You used 80% I think :)
Step-by-step explanation:
D divide by 1000… you are shifting the decimal 3 places (there are 3 zeros in 1000) you are dividing because the number is getting smaller.
Answer:
30.8936
Step-by-step explanation:
Pressure guage reading is 8% lower than tbe actual pressure.
Therefore, for a tyre with guage pressure, 33.58 ;
The actual pressure of tyre would be :
Guage pressure - 8% of guage pressure
33.58 - (0.08 * 33.58)
33.58 - 2.6864
= 30.8936
Actual pressure = 30.8936
