Answer:

Shelby. If Ryann's time was 18.3, not 183 seconds, then the second-place winner would be Ryann.

Explanation:

Looking at the table, we see that Madison had the lowest time, (18 seconds) and Shelbie and Tammie follow her in that order (Shelbie came second and Tammie third.) Again, if Ryann's time was 18.3 and not 183 seconds, he would have won second place and Shelbie would have gotten third. Hope this helped!
