Answer: 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation: Ratio describes the relative magnitudes between quantities. Their payment is given in the ratio of 1:3:4. Andy = 1, Taylor = 3, and Ben = 4

To figure out the ratio Andy receives, we first add the ratios together to get the sum of ratios.

Therefore, 1 + 3 + 4 = 8

Andy receives 1 out of 8 = ⅛

Representing fractions as percentages, we simply multiply by 100/1.

⅛ x (100/1) = 100/8 = 12.5%

Therefore, Andy receives 12.5% as his share of their team payment.

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Buffalo mild wings offers the lowest price per wing ($0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find unit price per buffalo wing of each restaurant.

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$7}{8\text{ wings}}$

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$0.875}{\text{ wing}}$

Upon rounding our answer to nearest cent we will get,

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$0.88}{\text{ wing}}$

Therefore, buffalo bills offers each wing for $0.88.

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$10}{12\text{ wings}}$

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$0.83333}{\text{ wing}}$

Upon rounding our answer to nearest cent we will get,

$\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$0.83}{\text{ wing}}$

Therefore, buffalo mild wings offers each wing for $0.83.

$\text{Unit rate for wingers}=\frac{\$17}{20\text{ wings}}$

$\text{Unit rate for wingers}=\frac{\$0.85}{\text{ wing}}$

Therefore, wingers offers each wing for $0.85.

We can see that buffalo mild wings offers the lowest price per wing that is $0.83 per wing.
