Question

Deon, Jerome, Lamar, and Terell are practicing for the meter relay race. The school record for the race is 49.6 seconds. The fastest time that each boy ran a 100-meter sprint in practice is shown in the table. If each of the boys can run their best 100-meter sprint during the race, can they beat the school record?​

Answer 1

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Add all of their best times.

11.9 + 12.6 + 12.52 + 11.95 = 48.97

48.97 < 49.6
