Hi I have a list of salespersons and the amount sold by each one. Like the following:

Mary 100
Tao 200
Jack 300
Sarah 240
++++++
I want to ask users who are going to read this table a question to find out which sales person came as number one in term of amount he/she was sold. Could you please let me know which question of the following is better? or how you would write it yourself? Thank you very much
+++++++
What is the name of the salesperson who sold the most?
Whos sales were the highest?
Whos sales were the biggest?
Which sales person sold more than the rest?

They are all OK, but I prefer "Whose sales were the highest?"

Note that the first word of that and the next one is "whose."

Bonus suggestion: Your first sentence, which is directed to us in AUE,
has a wrong word ("was") and a phrase that isn't quite right ("came
as").

As a minimal change, the sentence would be better (IMO) as: "I want to
ask users who are going to read this table a question to find out which
sales person came out as number one in term of amount he/she has sold".

An even better rewrite, I think, would be: "I want users to be able to
show how to determine which salesperson has sold the most, and to name
which came out as the sales leader."

(Note that in American usage, "salesperson" is one word, while "sales
leader" would still be two words.)
