Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total games for Tony

Total games for Tony = Games won + Games tied+ Games lost = 4 + 10+ 6=20

Step2: Calculate win - tie percentage for Tony

Win - tie percentage for Tony = $\frac{4 + 10}{20}\times100\%=\frac{14}{20}\times100\% = 70\%$

Step3: Calculate total games for April

Total games for April = 5 + 7+ 4=16

Step4: Calculate win - tie percentage for April

Win - tie percentage for April = $\frac{5 + 7}{16}\times100\%=\frac{12}{16}\times100\% = 75\%$

Step5: Calculate total games for Conner

Total games for Conner = 6+3 + 6=15

Step6: Calculate win - tie percentage for Conner

Win - tie percentage for Conner = $\frac{6 + 3}{15}\times100\%=\frac{9}{15}\times100\% = 60\%$

Step7: Compare percentages

Since 75%>70%>60%, April has the highest win - tie percentage.

Answer:

Tony = 70%
April = 75%
Conner = 60%
The player the coach should pick to play as goalie is April
