Answer: The running back had 124 total yards after the 4th quarter. Work: 129 yards (3 quarters) - (5 yards x 5 rushes) = 124 yards. Explanation: The running back had 129 yards through 3 quarters of the game. Since the running back lost 5 yards per rush in the 4th quarter and rushed 5 times, we subtract the total yards lost for all 5 rushes (25 yards) from the running back's total yardage (129 yards) to get their total yards after the 4th quarter (124 yards).
