Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference of both prices.

150 - 120 = 30

Calculate the ratio of the decrease in price to the original price.

30/150 = 0.2

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get your percentage.

0.2(100) = 20

Pamela ran 7/10 mile on Tuesday and 3/8 mile on Thursday. How much fatter did she run on Tuesday ?

Len [333]

Answer:

$Difference = \frac{13}{40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Thursday = \frac{3}{8}\ mile$

$Tuesday = \frac{7}{10}\ mile$

Required

How much farther is she on Tuesday

To do this, we simply calculate the difference between distance covered on both days.

$Difference = Tuesday-Thursday$

$Difference = \frac{7}{10} - \frac{3}{8}$

Take LCM

$Difference = \frac{28- 15}{40}$

$Difference = \frac{13}{40}$

<em>Hence, she ran 13/40 mile farther on Tuesday</em>
