The table shows the position of each runner relative to when the first place finisher crossed the finished level. who finished in second place? who finished in fifth place

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. Let's order the position of each runner shown in the table from greatest to least, to see which one is closer to zero:

-0.480 meters (Runner D).

= -0.56 meters (Runner E).

-1.05 meters (Runner C).

= -1.25 meters (Runner B).

-1.264 meters (Runner A).

= -1.625 meters (Runner F).

2. As you can see, the position of the runner that is closer to zero is:

-0.480 meters (Runner D)

3. Therefore the runner D finished in second place.

4. The runner B finished in fifth place.

The answer is: The runner D finished in second place and the runner B finished in fifth place.

its adding 5.5 each time
