1/4 cinnamon was left, so 3/4 was used.

1/3 nutmeg was left, so 2/3 was used

1/2 of ginger was left so 1/2 was left

5/8 of pumpkin was left so 3/8 was used.

Corey's was used the most, 3/4 is the largest used, so Corey had the cinnamon.

Laura's was used least, 3/8 is the smallest amount so Laura had the pumpkin.

2/3 is more then 1/2, so there was more ginger used than nutmeg.

More of Paige's was used, so Paige had the ginger.
