Time, Speed and Distance

Question:

The ratio of speed of A and B is 3 : 7 and A loses the race by 360 m, then find the length of the race.

Options:

630 m

420 m

510 m

560 m

Correct Answer:

630 m

Explanation:

The time is same for A and B. 

Therefore, Distance ∝ Speed,

                  A          :           B

Speed         3          :           7

Distance      3          :           7          Difference = 4R

4R = 360

1R = 90

The length of race = distance covered by B = 7 × 90 = 630 m
