You need to convert the three given numerals into values that you can easily compare.
first, you need to figure out how much 3/7 of the bill is, in percent. 3/7 *100 = ???
that is the percent than Kim paid. you know how much sherri paid. Judy: she paid 100% - (what kim paid + what sherri paid). then just see which statement is true...
A. Kim paid the most. 3/7 = .429 35% = .350 Left Over = .22, or 22%
the answer is A.
they paid the same
Kim paid about 45% Sherri paid 35%. 45+35=78 100%-78%=22% So Kim paid the most. A is the answer
