Respuesta :

Answer:

Liam

Step-by-step explanation:

First we can change 12% to 0.12 then multiply 0.12 with 5 and get 0.6, so Stan has 0.6 of the flour, and we see that 0.11 is greater than 0.7 and 0.6

Louise used the greatest amount of flour from the can.

What is Percentage?

Percentage is defined as a number that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.

Total flour in the can = 5 pounds

Stan used 12% of the total flour in the can

Liam used 0.11 of the total flour in the can

Louise used 0.7 pound of the total flour in the can

12 % of 5 = 0.6 pound

0.11 * 5 = 0.55 pound

0.7*5 =3.5 pound

Louise used 3.5 pound which is the greatest among the three.
