Practicing Success
In a race of 300m, B gives a start of 30m to A and C gives a start of 60m to B. The start, that C can give to A in the same race. |
80m 86m 84m 92m |
84m |
1st condition: Ratio of distance covered ⇒ A : B = 270 : 300 = 9 : 10 2nd condition: Ratio of distance covered ⇒ B : C = 240 : 300 = 4 : 5 Now, A : B : C 9 : 10 4 : 5 36 : ---- : 50 50R = 300 1R = 6 36R = 216m Here we can see that, if C covers 300 m then A covers 216 m. Therefore, C gives ⇒ 300 - 216 = 84m start to A in the same race. |
