Answer:

We must order these decimals from least to greatest. Then we must determine how the least compares with the winning score.

9.80 -> 3

9.75 -> 1

9.79 -> 2

9.81 -> 4

The least decimal is 9.75. Now we must determine how 9.75 compare with the winning score.

The last swimmer must get a score less than 9.75 seconds in order to win.
