Question

Three friends share the total cost of a game. Joe pays 30%, mike pays 2/5 and tony pays the rest. Who paid the most ?

Answer 1

Mike pays the most.

Explanation:

Joe pays 30%, given, and Mike pays 2/5, also given. You can covert 2/5. into a percentage by multiply both the numerator and denominator by 20 which gives you 40/100 = 40%. If Mike and Joe combined pay 40%+30% = 70%, then Tony only pays 30%. Therefore Mike would pay the most.
