Choose the correct order of the racers from last place to first place below.

A. Gina, Roma, Kyle, SooLin
B. Gina, SooLin, Roman, Kyle
C. SooLin, Gina, Roman, Kyle
D. SooLin, Kyle, Roman, Gina

Answer 1

B. Gina, SooLin, Roman, Kyle

We know Gina is the slowest. That means she has to be in last place. The answer choices are already narrowed down to A and B. We see that Roman is faster than SooLin but slower than Kyle. This means that Roman's place should be between SooLin and Kyle. This only gives us the choice of answer B.
