Liam $14

Lidea 1/3 cost = $18.60

Lisa 25% = $13.95

Larry = $9.25

Explanation:

Liam’s amount was given= $14

Lidea: 1/3 of $55.80 =$18.60

Lisa: 55.80 x .25 =$13.95

Lary: add up Liam’s, Lidea’s and Lisa’s payments ($46.55) and subtract that from $55.80 = $9.25

Lidea paid the greatest amount of the cost, as $18.60 is the highest amount paid between all of the friends.

Good luck!
