Explanation:

Here the translation of the problem...

The ranking of a country in the Olympic Games medal table depends on the number of gold medals it has won in the competition, having as a tiebreaker the number of silver medals followed by the number of bronze medals won. At the 2004 Olympics, Brazil was ranked sixteenth in the medal table, having won 5 medals from gold, 2 silver and 3 bronze. Part of this medal chart is reproduced below.

If Brazil had obtained 4 more gold, 4 silver and 10 bronze medals, with no change in the number of medals from the other countries shown in the table, what would have been the Brazilian classification in the 2004 Olympic medal table?

Brazil would have ended up with 9 gold, 6 silver and 13 bronze and a total of 28 medals, the 11th position was Cuba with 9 gold, 7 silver 11 bronze and a total of 27 medals, so if the case of Brazil would have been that, Brazil would ended up in 11th position rank.
