Question

The number of pages that Allen, Kevin, Roneisha, and Ben can read in a day is shown below. Allen read 15% of his 56-page book. Kevin read 12% of his 64-page book. Roneisha read 16% of his 42-page book. Ben read 10% of his 72-page book. Who can read the greatest number of pages in a day?

Group of answer choices:

Kevin

Allen

Roneisha

Ben

Answer 1

You have to find the single proportions. Allen is the greatest

Answer 2

It would be “Allen” since his percentage is far more grater then the rest, even Roneisha because even though her percentage is 1% greater, she has less pages, Ben has more pages but has 1% less.


Basically it’s like 2 bikers racing, 1 biker is faster but can’t go 5 miles, but the other is not that fast but can go 5+ miles.

Now who can go further, it would be the slow one.
