In the game of golf, the player with the lowest score wins. Raheem, Erin, and Blake played a game of miniature golf. The table shows their scores compared to par.
At the end of the game, they wanted to know who had won.
Look at how they solved the problem. Find their error.
STEP 1: 0 is greater than both −1 and −5. Since Raheem had the highest score, he did not win.
STEP 2: −1 is less than −5, so Blake’s score was less than Erin’s score. Since Blake had the lowest score, he won the game.
Correct the error by ordering the scores from least to greatest.
So, _____ won. _____ came in second. _____ came in third.
