Fair Medal

Fair Medal
If you were to make a table that lists the Olympic teams from best to worst, how would you do it?

…in a way that would be fair?

Of course, total medals wouldn’t be fair because some countries send way more athletes than others. Medals per person wouldn’t be quite right either because a country could send only one athlete, that athlete would win a gold medal, and than he/she would end up at the top of the list.

Considering all of that, how would you make the table?

Thanks in advance!

I would simply go with the number of medals, its much simpler, but its true, it isnt 100% fair.

Open up microsoft publisher, and list each of the countries, and the number of golds, silver and bronze for each year. then i would add up the total number of medals in that olympic game, and the total number of medals for that country.

that may not be completly fair, but its the only way i can figure it out. good luck- i hope this helped.
