First place is a

Fifth place is b

Answer 2

To be able to compare them, change all the meters to either fractions or decimals. In this case, decimals would be more preferable.

Runner A

-1.264

Runner B

-5/4 = -1.25

Runner C

-1.015

Runner D

-0.48

Runner E

-14/25 = -0.56

Runner F

-13/8 = -1.625

In order from closest to farthest from first place

Runner D (-0.48), Runner E (-0.56), Runner C (-1.015), Runner B (-1.25), Runner A (-1.264), Runner F (-1.625)

Runner D finished in second place and Runner B finished in fifth place.
