  • Question
  • In a 100 m race, A can give B 10 m and C 28 m. In the same race B can give C:


  • Options
  • A. 18 m
  • B. 20 m
  • C. 27m
  • D. 9 m

  • Correct Answer
  • 20 m 

    Explanation

    A : B = 100 : 90.

     

    A : C = 100 : 72.

     

    B:C = B/A*A/C = 90/100*100/72 = 90/72

     

    When B runs 90 m, C runs 72 m.

     

    When B runs 100 m, C runs (72/90*100)m = 80m

     

     B can give C 20 m.
