Answer 2

Answer: Amelia 5, Keturah 10, Jordan 6, Bryce 18

Explanation:

If Amelia scored 5 and Keturah scored 2 times of Amelia's score, then 5 x 2 is 10, so Keturah scored 10. If Keturah scored 10 and Jordan scored 4 points fewer than Jordan's score, then 10 - 4 is 6, so Jordan scored 6. If Jordan scored 6 and Bryce scored 3 times of Jordan's score, then 6 x 3 is 18, so Bryce scored 18. So C is the correct answer.
