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 ?

A) 127.5 m B) 254 m
C) 184 m D) 212 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 127.5 m

Explanation:

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

When B runs 900 m, distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 m.

In a race of 1000 m, A beats C by (1000 - 787.5) = 212.5 m to C.

In a race of 600 m, the number of meters by which A beats C

= (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 m.
