Step-by-step explanation:
Amelia got 56% of 75 so
(56/100)*75=(56*75)/100=4200/100=42
Hayden got 8/15 of 75 so
(8/15)*75=(8*75)/15=600/15=40
and Sophie that got 43 out of 75
so we see that Sophie got the highest points.
Given parameters:
Total test score = 75marks
Percentage of Amelia score = 56%
Fraction of Hayden's score = [tex]\frac{8}{15}[/tex]
Sophie's score = 43marks
Unknown:
The person with the highest score = ?
Solution:
Since total score = 75marks;
Amelia's score = [tex]\frac{56}{100} x 75[/tex] = 42marks
Hayden's score = [tex]\frac{8}{15} x 75[/tex] = 40marks
Sophie's score = 43 marks
The person with the highest score is Sophie with a mark of 43.
