Answer:

  Bob

Step-by-step explanation:

The "steepness," or slope, of the mountain is the ratio of height to horizontal distance to the base:

  Joe's mountain slope = 1200/1500 = 0.8

  Bob's mountain slope = 900/1000 = 0.9

Bob's mountain has a greater slope than Joe's. Bob climbed the steeper mountain.
