Answer:
Mara
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the representative, we need to get the one with the higher win rate. To get that, we need to find their respective win rates and choose the better of the two. Take note that the win rate = (Win/Games played)
Mara = 10/15 which is 66 2/3% or 0.666...
Clara = 6/10 which is 60% or 0.6
The better win rate goes to Mara, so she should be the chosen one.
