Three different golfers played a different number of holes today. Rory played 9 holes and had a total of 42 strokes. Jordan play
ed 18 holes and had a total of 79 strokes. Ricky played 27 holes and had a total of 123 strokes. Which golfer had the lowest number of strokes PER HOLE?
Okay so for each person we're pretty much gonna have to find the value of strokes over holes. Rory: 42 strokes per 9 holes Jordan: 79 strokes per 18 holes Ricky: 123 strokes per 27 holes
Now, we can do the division for each person and round. But first, I'll say stokes per hole is s/h. Just feed each number into a calculator like this: <em>per </em>means divide.
Rory: 4.66667 s/h Jordan: 4.38889 s/h Ricky: 4.55556 s/h Well, Jordan had the lowest number of strokes per hole since his value is the smallest.
