Answer:

Noah is right.

Explanation:

Diego has 75% of $10. It means

Diego's money =
10* (75)/(100)=\$7.5

Noah has 25% of $30.

Noah's money =
30* (25)/(100)=\$7.5

From the above calculation, we get

Diego's money = Noah's money

It means they have same amount.

Diego thinks he has more money than noah but noah thinks they have the same amount .

Therefore, Noah is right.
