Question

Answer 1

Gary was the most thirsty

Answer 2

Answer:

Gary was more thirsty.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that On a hot summer day, John drank 5⁄11 of a quart of iced tea; Gary drank 7⁄10 of a quart; and Carter drank 3⁄5 of a quart.

We have to tell which man was the most thirsty.

The man which drank more iced tea was most thirsty

John drank=$\frac{5}{11} of quart$=0.4545 of quart

Gary drank = $\frac{7}{10} of quart$=0.7 of quart

Carter drank = $\frac{3}{5} of quart$=0.6 of quart

From above 3 we say that Gary drank more water than other 2. Therefore, Gary was more thirsty.
