What fraction of the total race distance will each person swim?

As there is no numerical data provided, the number answer cannot be calculated. To find what fraction of a distance a single member in a relay race has swum, divide the distance swum by the total distance. Normally the fraction will be equal to the reciprocal of the number of team members involved, as few races have one swimmer swimming more than one leg of the relay (i.e. each of a competing group of 4 swimmers swims 1/4 of the total distance).
