A : B = 100 : 90.
A : C = 100 : 87.
B/C = (B/A*A/C) = (90/100*100/87) = 30/29
When B runs 30 m, C runs 29 m.
When B runs 180 m, C runs (29/30*180)m =174m
B beats C by (180 - 174) m = 6 m.
B covers 28 meters in 7sec. So, B's time over the course = (7/28)*100 =250 sec.
Whereas A's time over the course = 250 -7 = 243 sec.
i.e A's time over the course is 4min , 3 sec.
