Answer:

Raheem

Step-by-step explanation:

Josh :

using simple interest formula :

Final amount = P(1 + rt)

Final amount = 1200(1 + 0.04*5)

Final amount = 1200(1.2)

Final amount = £1440

Raheem :

Using compound interest formula :

Final amount = P(1 + r/n)^nt

Final amount = 1250(1 + 0.03)^5

Final amount = 1250(1.03)^5

Final amount = £1449.09

Raheem has more money
