Ysgol Cwm Tawel sports day: the helpers’ results sheets

Ysgol Cwm Tawel, its pupils and every result on this sheet are invented practice data. Different helpers wrote the results down in different ways, so read each one carefully.

1. How to read a stopwatch

The stopwatches show minutes : seconds . hundredths of a second.

Stopwatch shows	It means
00:14.62	0 minutes, 14 seconds and 62 hundredths of a second = 14.62 seconds

6. Key facts

1 minute = 60 seconds.
1 metre = 100 centimetres.
14.9 is the same as 14.90. Adding a zero at the end of the decimals does not change the value.
