In a game of long jump, Ravi jumped 4.77 m, Navi jumped 4.775 m, Sushweta jumped 4.55 m, Shreya jumped 4.65 m, Apurva jumped 4.95 m. Who is the winner of this game?

Solution

Distance jumped by Ravi = 4.77 m
Distance jumped by Navi = 4.775 m
Distance jumped by Sushweta = 4.55 m
Distance jumped by Shreya = 4.65 m
Distance jumped by Apurva = 4.95 m

Since the digit at the ones place is the same (equals to 4) for all the 5 numbers, we have to compare the tenths place.

4.95 has 9 in the tenths place, which is the largest among the given numbers.

Therefore, 4.95 is the largest among the 5 numbers and hence Apurva is the winner.
