Respuesta :

Answer:

Gabriel has the highest proportion of wins, so he should start.

Step-by-step explanation:

He should start the quarterbacks with the highest proportion of wins.

The proportion of wins is the number of games won divided by the number of games played(wins + losses).

We have that:

Germaine has 8 wins in 8+5 = 13 games. So his proportion of wins is 8/13 = 0.6154.

Gabriel has 7 wins in 7+4 = 11 games. 7/11 = 0.6364

Gabriel has the highest proportion of wins, so he should start.
