Michael used a stopwatch to time the baseball pitches for three of his friends. The times are listed in the table.
The table shows pitching times in seconds. Pete pitched in 0.537 seconds, Ivan pitched in 0.58 seconds, and KaShawn pitched in 0.4996 seconds.
Which list shows the friends in order from the shortest time to the longest time?
KaShawn, Pete, Ivan
To find the list of friends in order from the shortest time to the longest time, we need to compare the pitching times and sort them in ascending order.
Let's compare the pitching times:
Pete: 0.537 seconds
Ivan: 0.58 seconds
KaShawn: 0.4996 seconds
From these comparisons, we can see that KaShawn's pitching time of 0.4996 seconds is the shortest, followed by Pete's pitching time of 0.537 seconds, and Ivan's pitching time of 0.58 seconds is the longest.
Therefore, the correct list of friends in order from shortest to longest time is: KaShawn, Pete, Ivan.
To determine the order of the friends from shortest time to longest time, we need to compare their pitch times.
The list of pitching times in ascending order (from shortest to longest) is as follows:
- KaShawn: 0.4996 seconds
- Pete: 0.537 seconds
- Ivan: 0.58 seconds
Therefore, the correct order would be KaShawn, Pete, Ivan.
