keeping in mind that 3 months is not even a year, but since there are 12 months in a year, 3 months is really 3/12 years, therefore,


\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill&100\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\to \frac{3}{12}\dotfill &\frac{1}{4} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 100=P\left( 0.04\cdot \frac{1}{4} \right)\implies 100=P(0.01)\implies \cfrac{100}{0.01}=P\implies 10000=P

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Maria

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the ratio of powdered mix to water for each drink.

For Maria:

(2/3 cup) / (2 gallon)

= 1/3 cup per gallon

For Franco:

(1 1/4 cup) / (5 gallon)

= (5/4 cup) / (5 gallon)

= 1/4 cup per gallon

Since 1/3 is bigger than 1/4, Maria's sports drink is stronger.
