Hint:

Change the dumbbell weights from pounds to kg before comparing with the 2 kg and 3 kg medicine balls.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Collect the weights:
Medicine ball: girls 2 kg, boys 3 kg. Dumbbell: women 5 lb, men 8 lb. The units differ, so first change pounds to kg.

Step 2: Convert units:
Use 1 lb = 0.4536 kg. Then 5 lb = 2.27 kg and 8 lb = 3.63 kg.

Step 3: Sort the numbers:
The four values are 2, 3, 2.27 and 3.63 kg. Sorting: 2 < 2.27 < 3 < 3.63.

Step 4: Map back to letters:
2 is C, 2.27 is D, 3 is B and 3.63 is A. So the sequence is C, D, B, A.

Step 5: Pick the option:
This is option (4).

Final Answer:
The sequence is C, D, B, A. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 4}} \]
