──────────────────────────────────────
Explanation:
Let’s look at the race. The finish line is on the right, so the animal closest to it is first place. We count from right to left.
- 1st (first) is the tiger — it’s touching the finish line!
- 2nd (second) is the dog — right behind the tiger.
- 3rd (third) is the elephant — next after the dog.
- 4th (fourth) is the pig — after the elephant.
- 5th (fifth) is the cat — after the pig.
- 6th (sixth) is the tortoise — last in line.
Just remember: start counting from the finish line and go backward!
