Three different golfers played a different number of holes today. Rory played 9 holes and had a total of 42 strokes. Jordan played 18 holes and had a total of 79 strokes. Ricky played 27 holes and had a total of 123 strokes. Which golfer had the lowest number of strokes PER HOLE?
Question
Answer:
Okay so for each person we're pretty much gonna have to find the value of strokes over holes.Rory: 42 strokes per 9 holes
Jordan: 79 strokes per 18 holes
Ricky: 123 strokes per 27 holes
Now, we can do the division for each person and round. But first, I'll say stokes per hole is s/h. Just feed each number into a calculator like this: per means divide.
Rory: 4.66667 s/h
Jordan: 4.38889 s/h
Ricky: 4.55556 s/h
Well, Jordan had the lowest number of strokes per hole since his value is the smallest.
