  • Question
  • Two boys, A and B, runs at 4 1? 2 and 6 Km an hour. A having 190 m start. The course being 1 Km, B wins by a distance of :


  • Options
  • A. 60 m
  • B. 65 m
  • C. 45 m
  • D. 75 m

  • Correct Answer
  • 60 m 

    Explanation

    Speeds (in m/sec) of A and B are
    9 / 2 * 5 / 18 = 5 / 4 and 6 * 5 / 18 = 5 / 3, respectively.
    A has a start of 190 m.
    So, A has to run 1000 - 190 = 810 m, while B 1000 m.
    Time taken by B to cover 1000 m = 3 5 × 1000 = 600 seconds.
    In this time, A covers 5 × 600 / 4 = 750 m.
    So, B reaches the winning post while A remains 810 - 750 = 60 m behind.
    ? B wins by 60 m.
