In a race of 200 m. A can beat B by 31 m and C by 18 m. In a race of 350 m, C will beat B by:

A    22.75m

B    25m

C    19.5m

D    20.5m

Solution

Correct Answer: Option B

 

In a race of 200m, A can beat B by 31m and C by 18m.

So in 200m race, when A goes 200m

                                    B goes 169m

                                    C goes 182m

It means,

 when C goes 182m B goes 169m

when C goes 1m B goes 169/182m

when C goes 350m B goes 169X350/182 m = 325m

So C beats B by (350-325)m = 25m
