Sporting Groups
In these two groups, which two sports should swap places?
Group A: Football (NFL or American) Soccer Baseball
Answer Baseball and Basketball should swap places. The first group is sports in which the number of players for one team is prime, the second group is sports in which the number of players is composite.
American Football (11) Soccer (11) Basketball (5) Volleyball (6) Baseball (9) Hockey (6)
