Answer 1

What do you think?

A? or C but mostly A

A is correct because when dealing with two negative numbers, the negative number closer to zero is going to be closer in distance.

Hahaha yeah and o okay orange master

Answer 12

I think the question is saying that these kids are plenty in the pool. The -2/4 isn't referring to the size of their feet, but the distance. @Cardinal_Carlo

Answer 13

The evidence suggests the contrary @OrangeMaster. Look at the prompt: "Determine whose feet are closer to the surface."

Whose feet is it? is what they're asking. 'Feet' is used as a noun. They're really talking about feet.

Answer 14

To add: the measure of distance used in the given prompt is in yards.
