what clue indicates anything other than a tie between Rob and Ray?
This should be logic, not math.
How do these things get past the editors?

I don't understand this one.
Based on the info given, it is inconclusive as to whether Ray beat Rob or Rob beat Ray; I say they tied, that way niether one of them has to be a loser alone...misery DOES love company...
Why wasn't Rob the loser? BTW - I might change my name to ill-logic-Al.
I agree - Rob and Ray's positions are indeterminable. This is a poor question which should not be in the maths section. Even if the question was phrased correctly it would be rediculously easy and not deserving of an entry on this site.
way to easy
im confuzed rob and randy could be switched but good effort nxt time just reread it
Rob...Ray???
Far too easy and not a math question at all, sorry!
This is like the problems in math class, where the answer is "not enough information to solve". Although, going strictly by the title and ignoring the last sentence, we can certainly answer. Maybe it's a trick.
I don't get how this was math....
Um? Who won? I do not get it.
hey peeps... it was phrased correctly... just put in the wrong section.
Math?
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got this one very quickly thru deductive reasoning.
