c) Gianni used 50% of his data, and Lamar used 60% of his data.
d) Gianni used 60% of his data, and Lamar used 50% of his data.

Answer 1

Lamar used a greater percentage of his data plan than Gianni; 80% compared to Gianni's 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires determining who used a greater percentage of their data plan, Gianni or Lamar. To find the percentage of data used, we can use the formula: (Amount of data used / Data plan limit) × 100%.

For Gianni: (6GB / 8GB) × 100% = 75% of his data plan was used.

For Lamar: (4GB / 5GB) × 100% = 80% of his data plan was used.

Therefore, Lamar used a higher percentage of his data plan compared to Gianni.
