A) Mr. Tosh
B) Mr. James
C) Mrs. Lawson
D) Miss Smith

Answer 1

Answer is B  Mr James

Lets convert all the fractions, percentages to decimals:_

Mr James:  5/8 = 0.625

Miss Smith: 0.61

Mrs Lawson: 9/16 = 0.5625

Mr Tosh: 0.58

Mrs Cagle 0.53

So Mr James corrected the most homework.

Answer 2

The teacher that corrected the greatest amount would be Mr. James. Reason for this would be that 5/8 is .625 and when you move the decimal to places to the right to make a percent, you would get 62%
