Oliver is the runner in 1st place 16 meters ahead of Nick, who is the runner in the last place.
Answer:
The runner in first place is 16 meters ahead of the runner in last place
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of boys running in the race = 4
Pete is ahead of nick by 11 meters
Also, Oliver is ahead of Manny by 10 meters
And, Oliver is ahead of Pete by 5 meters
⇒ Manny is somewhere in between Pete and Nick
So, The runner which is ahead of all 4 is Oliver and the runner which is at last is Nick
So, To calculate the required distance :
Add the distance between Oliver and Pete and the distance between Pete and Nick
⇒ The required distance = 5 + 11
⇒ The required distance = 16 meters
Therefore, The runner in first place is 16 meters ahead of the runner in last place
