Answer 1

Answer: (4.2, 3.15, 3.060, 2.999)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Distances covered by 3 girls in miles :

Jennifer = 3.15 miles

Gina = 3.060 miles

Tiffany = 2.999 miles

Stephanie = 4.2 miles

Since distances covered by the girls are recorded in the same unit, then we only need to consider the number and the order in descending order ( highest to lowest)

From the data given:

4.2 miles > 3.15 miles > 3.060 miles > 2.999 miles

(4.2, 3.15, 3.060, 2.999)

Hence the order of the distance the girls ran from greatest to least.
