Question

Read the question carefully and choose the correct answer.

As they prepare for the state championships, one gymnast must be moved from the Level $2$ team to the Level $1$ team. The coaches will move the gymnast who has won the biggest prize and who has the most experience. In the last competition, Roberta won a bronze medal and has competed seven times before. Jamie has won a silver medal and has competed fewer times than Roberta. Beth has won a higher medal than Jamie and has competed more times than Roberta. Michele has won a bronze medal, and it is her third time competing. Who will be moved to the Level $1$ team?

• A. Roberta
• B. Beth
• C. Michele
• D. Jamie

Answer 1

The correct option is B Beth

Beth won the biggest prze, described as a higher medal than Jamie's which we've been told was a silver medal. Roberta and Michele both won bronze medals, which are lower ranking medals than silver. Beth is also described as having competed more times than Roberta who has competed seven times. Jamie is described as having competed fewer times than Roberta, and Michele has competed three times. Therefore, Beth has competed more times than the others and has won the biggest prize to date.
