Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05 
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves

X - (1/5x + 1/2x + 1/4x)
= x - 19/20x
= 1/20x
= 0.05x (Written in decimal)

No, Josh is wrong. it should be 0.05x and not 0.5x
