Answer 1

Carlos because he has 500 pennie compared to the 30 pennies

Answer 2

Answer=Carlos

If Jackie has 10 groups, with 3 in each groups, she has 30 total pennies.

10*3=30 pennies

If Carlos has 5 groups with 100 in each group, then Carlos has 500 pennies.

5*100=500 pennies

500 pennies is more than 30 pennies, so Carlos has more pennies
