Answer:

Quinn

For Quinn:

275 points - - > 5 min

5000 points - - > x min

--------------------------------------

275*x=5*5000-->x=90.9 minutes

For Delilah:

675 points - - > 15 min

5000 points - - > y min

--------------------------------------

675*x=15*5000-->y=111.1 minutes

90.9<111.1, so Quinn will score 5000 points faster
