(1 / 4) = .25
.25 * 100% = 25%
Uncle Bill ate 25%
Cousin Chris ate 15%
.3 * 100% = 30%
Cousin Timmy ate 30%
Little Dave ate 12%
You ate none.
Cousin Timmy ate the most, 18% of the turkey is left, and 82% of the turkey was eaten.
Defend my work in writing:
I converted my fractions and decimals to percents to find the different percents eaten for each person.
To find the answer divide each money amount by the cost:
3.45/14=<span>0.246428571429
</span>4.35/16=0.271875
3.29/12=0.274166666667
4.25/15=<span>0.283333333333
</span>The pickle jar that has the best deal is 14 oz for $3.45
Hope this helps!
