Let me work through this problem step by step.
First, let me look at the data given:
- Olivia: 10 points
- James: 8 points
- Liam: 12 points
- Nora: 6 points
Now let me answer each question:
Question 1: Who got the highest points?
Looking at the scores: 10, 8, 12, 6
The highest is 12, which belongs to Liam.
Question 2: How many points did James and Nora get?
James: 8 points
Nora: 6 points
Total: 8 + 6 = 14 points
Question 3: How many fewer points did Olivia get than Liam?
Olivia: 10 points
Liam: 12 points
Difference: 12 - 10 = 2 points fewer
Question 4: How many more points did James get than Nora?
James: 8 points
Nora: 6 points
Difference: 8 - 6 = 2 points more
Question 5: Two kids got a total of 16 points. Who were they?
Let me check all combinations:
- Olivia (10) + James (8) = 18
- Olivia (10) + Liam (12) = 22
✘
- Olivia (10) + Nora (6) = 16 ✓
- James (8) + Liam (12) = 20
✘
- James (8) + Nora (6) = 14
✘
- Liam (12) + Nora (6) = 18
✘
The answer is Olivia and Nora.
Question 6: Who got a score higher than Nora but less than Olivia?
Nora's score: 6
Olivia's score: 10
We need someone with a score between 6 and 10 (not including 6 or 10).
James has 8 points, which is between 6 and 10.
Answer: James
Final Answer:
1. Liam
2. 14 points
3. 2 points
4. 2 points
5. Olivia and Nora
6. James
