If Alex and Keanu received the same total number of attempts during a two-day archery competition, did Alex hit more bull's-eyes than Keanu did?

(1) On the first day, Alex hit bull's-eyes on a higher percentage of shots than Keanu did.
(2) On the second day, Alex hit bull's-eyes on a higher percentage of shots than Keanu did.
