Question : 24 of 40

Marks: +1, -0

In a race of 200 metres, B can give a start of 10 metres to A and C can give a start of 20 metres to B. The start that C can give to A, in the same race, is

30 m
29 m
27 m
25 m

Validate

Solution:

B covers 200 m while A 190 m
B covers 180 m while A

{190}/{200} × 180

= 171 m
Hence, C covers 200 m while A = 171 m
So, C can give to A (200 – 171) = 29 m start.
