Question

Ava, Grace, Jayden, and Zoe together stacked a total of 50 brownies on a tray. Ava stacked 0.14 of the brownies, Grace stacked 4 of the 50 brownies, Jayden stacked 24% of the brownies, and Zoe stacked the remaining brownies. Who stacked the most brownies?
Ava
Grace
Jayden
Zoe

Answer 1

Total brownies: 50
Ava : 0.14 of brownies
Grace : 4 of the 50 brownies
Jayden : 24% of the brownies
Zoe: remaining

50 - (50 x 0.14) - 4 - (50 x 24%) = 50 - 7 - 4 - 12 = 50 - 23 = 27

Zoe stacked the most brownies. She stacked 27 brownies out of the 50 brownies.
