Lina's Spring Crate Test

On an early spring morning, Lina tested a small wooden crate on a smooth plank near the barn. She started the same crate at the same line each time. A gentle push toward the barn moved it 2 spaces. A strong push toward the barn moved it 5 spaces. A gentle pull toward the barn moved it 3 spaces. A strong pull toward the barn moved it 4 spaces. When Lina gave a gentle push toward the garden, the crate moved toward the garden.

2.
Which push sent the crate farther toward the barn?
  • A. The gentle push
  • B. A push toward the garden
  • C. The strong push
  • D. The push from the start line
