The sequence of color changes is always the same: yellow, purple, green, red, and blue.
At 80 ft Kevin’s ball is red. At 40 ft Larry’s ball is purple. At 60 ft Charles’ ball is blue At 100 ft Alex’s ball is purple.
The remaining ball was blue. Here’s a table of each ball and the color it changes to at 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 ft. Kevin’s started out yellow, Larry’s was green, Charles’ was red and Alex began with a purple ball, leaving blue as the one nobody picked.
