Respuesta :

Answer:

c)  Mike receives the award for being the best at jumping rope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, according to the question

Jumping rate of Linda = 120 times in 4 minute

So, number of jumps Linda does per minute = (120/4) = 30

So, Jumps per minute of Linda is 30.

Jumping rate of Carl  = 315 times in 9 minute

So, number of jumps Carl does per minute = (315/9) = 35

So, Jumps per minute of Carl is 35.

Jumping rate of Mike = 252 times in 7 minute

So, number of jumps Mike does per minute = (252/7) = 36

So, Jumps per minute of Linda is 36.

Now if we compare the jumps per minute of Linda , Carl and Mike, weget that Mike has the best rate of 36 jumps per minute.

Hence, Mike receives the award for being the best at jumping rope.
