Answer: Federico

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to convert the fraction values into decimals and compare.

Luis = 6/7 = 6÷7 =0.85

Marissa = 5/9= 5 ÷ 9= 0.55

Federico = 11/10= 11÷10 = 1.1

Comparing the values, Federico raised the most money.

Federico (1.1) > Luis (0.85) > Marissa (0.55)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
