Here are the resulting percentages:
LEAH = 3.5%
RATHA = 2.3%
ED = 1.8%
CHRIS = 4.2%
MARY = 2.5%
You arrive at this answer by dividing the bonus by the wages
BONUS/WAGE = PERCENTAGE OF BONUS TO WAGE.
Chris had the greatest percentage of wages in his bonus
It's quite simple when you break it down
20/45 let's divide by 5
4/9
we can't divide anymore, no common denominator. The answer is 4/9
First, combine 20c and 10c because they are like terms then combine 8d and -5d.
It would look like this:
20c+8d+10c-5d
30c+3d
Hope that helps
4:5
explanation-
Express the given ratios as fraction
4 : 5 = 4/5 and 2 : 3 =2/3
Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3
The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3 is 15.
Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 15, we have
4/5 = (4 ×3)/(5 ×3) = 12/15 and 2/3 = (2 ×5)/(3 ×5) = 10/15
Clearly, 12 > 10
Now, 12/15 > 10/15
Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3.
