6 × 10.00
The highest mark (rating) which a gymnast can get, is a 10.00 (except in 1948, when the highest score was 20.00). And that mark can be given for each part. In 1976 was the star of the gymnastics Nadia Comaneci (Romania). She got 6 times the 10.00. But she never laughed at the Olympics, never..
