Answer 2

Answer:

Gary

Step-by-step explanation:

On this question, the point here is a comparison to fractions. Then, it is very useful to turn into decimal to better check.

Johnny drank:

$\frac{5}{11}=0.45$ quart

Gary drank 7/10

$\frac{7}{10}=0.7 quart$

Carter drank 3/5=

$\frac{3}{5} =0.6 q$

Gary was the man who drank more,  0.7 of a quart of a gallon. Almost 1 quart.
