Answer: Sammy
Step-by-step explanation: If Tom finished the 100 meter race in 12.54 seconds that means he would have been going at an average of 7.97 seconds and if Sammy is finishing a 100 meter race in 25.98 seconds he would have been going at an average of 3.84. Therefore Sammy is going at a faster average.
