huolympics1-1, Exercise 1: Same medals, different rankings

Model answer:

Medal tables use different ordering rules. One ranks by gold medals first, then silver, then bronze; another ranks by total medals. A nation with many golds but fewer total medals ranks higher in the first, and a nation with many bronzes ranks higher in the second. Other differences come from how a table treats disputed early results, medals reallocated after doping tests, and countries that no longer exist. So the same medals can give a different order, and the rule should always be stated. Details should be checked.
