Question

The running back for the Bulldogs football team carried the ball 5 times for a total loss of 11

Answer 1

Answer:

-2 1/5

Explanation:

For the average change in field position, you must take the total amount of yards gain, divided by the number of carries. Since the running back lost yards, it will be expressed as a negative.

-11 yards gained/5 carries= -11/5

Then convert to a mixed number:

-11/5 = -2 1/5
