Solution

The correct option is D All paid the same amount
Jennifer paid = 13 of the total bill amount.

If we multiply the denominator and the numerator of 13 by 4 we will get 412

i.e. 1×43×4=412

Similary, if we multiply the denominator and the numerator of 13 by 6 we will get 618

i.e. 1×63×6=618

Thus, 13,412 and 618 are equivalent fractions.

So, all of them paid the same amount.
