$\text{Given that Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes.}\\
\\
\text{we need to find this time in decimals. so we will convert 12 minutes into hours}\\
\\
\text{We know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. }\\
\\
\text{so in 1 minute there will be}=\frac{1}{60 }\text{ hour}$

$\text{hence in 12 minutes we have}=\frac{1}{60}\times 12=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
\text{hence the Jake's running time is}=3\text{hours + 12 minute}\\
\\
=3\text{ hours}+0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
=3.2 \text{ hours}$

Hence, Jake's running time in decimal is: 3.2 hours

If the cost of a dress is $75.00 and

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price =$75.00

Sale price =$60.00

The percentage discount can be calculated by dividing the sale price by the original price multiplied by 100%.

So % discount = $60.00/$75.00 x 100%

0.8 x 100%

80%

Janelle got the dress on a discount of 80%.

This is so because she got the dress for a price less than the original price
