i would find their score by dividing what they got by what it was out of...

sara - 37 / 50 = 74%
tony - = 29 / 40 = 72%

therefore, sara did better then tony

Answer:

Sara did better.

Explanation:

To find who did better, I calculated their overall percentage each scored on their test.

For Sara:

37÷50=0.74

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get a percentage of 74%.

For Tony:

29÷40=0.725

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get a percentage of 72.5%
