<h3>Answer:  409.86 dollars</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

65% = 65/100 = 0.65

65% of 230 = 0.65*230 = 149.50

When applying markup, the store increases the cost by $149.50 to get the retail price of 230+149.50 = 379.50, which is the price the customer sees. This is the price before tax.

As a shortcut, we can say 1.65*230 = 379.50 because 1.65 = 1 + 0.65 = 100% + 65%. So 1.65 effectively means "increase the value by 65%"

Similarly, the multiplier 1.08 means "increase by 8%". The cost after tax would be 1.08*379.50 = 409.86 which is the answer

----------

As an even quicker shortcut, we can do both increases at once to say:

1.65*1.08*230 = 409.86

The order of multiplication doesn't matter. The two multipliers 1.65 and 1.08 can be combined into 1.65*1.08 = 1.782 which represents a 78.2% increase overall. After the mark up and tax are considered, the jump from $230 to $409.86 is 78.2%

We can apply the percent change formula to confirm this

A = old value = 230

B = new value = 409.86

C = percent change

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (409.86-230)/230 ] * 100%

C = 0.782 * 100%

C = 78.2%

So it might be tempting to say 65% + 8% = 73%, but as you can see above, that calculation is not true.

explanation:

230×0.65=149.50

230+149.50=379.50×.08=30.36

379.50+30.36=409.86

(Hope this helps :) )

Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes. What would be Jake's running time as a decimal?
VikaD [51]

\text{Given that Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes.}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{we need to find this time in decimals. so we will convert 12 minutes into hours}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{We know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. }\\&#10;\\&#10;\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}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{hence the Jake's running time is}=3\text{hours + 12 minute}\\&#10;\\&#10;=3\text{ hours}+0.2 \text{ hours}\\&#10;\\&#10;=3.2 \text{ hours}

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