Question

Kofi and Ella each have the same amount of money to spend on food shopping. Kofi spends 3/4 of his money and Ella spends 63% of her money. Who spent the most money.

Answer 1

Kofi spent the most money.

Explanation:

We have been given that Kofi and Ella each have the same amount of money to spend on food shopping. Kofi spends 3/4 of his money and Ella spends 63% of her money.

Let us convert 3/4 into percent.

`\text{3/4 as a percent}=(3)/(4)* 100\%`

`\text{3/4 as a percent}=0.75* 100\%`

`\text{3/4 as a percent}=75\%`

We can see that
`(3)/(4)` is equal to 75%.

Since both have the same amount of money, so 75% will be greater than 63% of same amount. Therefore, Kofi spent the most money.
