The Johnson family went to their local amusement park to enjoy a fun filled day. Papa Johnson gave each of his three children twenty dollars to ride the rides. Create three pie charts showing how much each child spent. Charlie spent four dollars on bumper cars, three dollars on the slippery slope and eight dollars on the roller coaster. Mary spent seven dollars on the Scrambler, three dollars on the slippery slope, two dollars on the Ferris wheel and six dollars on the rocket ship. David spent nine dollars on the roller coaster, two dollars on the Scrambler and four dollars on the bumper cars. What kind of value did Charlie spend compared to what David spent?
