This worksheet applies decimal operations and data analysis skills through an engaging 4 × 400 meter relay race scenario. Students analyze a table of individual lap times, calculate team totals, compare performances, and answer questions involving decimal addition, subtraction, and averages.
Working with authentic race data, students determine total relay times, identify differences between teams and runners, and calculate averages for individual relay legs and entire teams. The multi-step questions encourage students to interpret numerical results, organize their work, and use decimal values as meaningful measurements of time rather than isolated computations.
This resource is ideal for guided practice, independent work, intervention, or assessment preparation. It strengthens decimal computation while reinforcing data analysis and mathematical reasoning in a realistic context that connects mathematics to athletics and measurement.
