Ques:- In a race of 1000 m, A can beat by 100 m, in a race of 800m, B can beat C by 100m. By how many meters will A beat C in a race of 600 m?
Recent Answer : Added by Kristi Bardhan On 2022-09-02 17:04:02:

When A runs 1000 meters, B runs 900 meters and when B runs 800 meters, C runs 700 meters.

Therefore, when B runs 900 meters, the distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 meters.

So, in a race of 1000 meters, A beats C by (1000 – 787.5) = 212.5 meters to C.

So, in a race of 600 meters, the number of meters by Which A beats C = (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 meters.

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:34:

Bus started at 8:00
it travelled with 18mph…
distance of destination is 27 miles…
we know velocity=(distance)/time
i.e., time=27/18hours=3/2hours=90 min…
i.e., the bus reached destination at 9:30
the bus stayed for 30 min…
so the bus started return journey at 10:00
now the bus returned with velocity 18 + (18/2)=27mph
the taken to the bus to travel = 27/27=1 hour = 60 min…
so bus would be returned on 11:00…
