Q:

A and B take part in 100 m race. A runs at 5 kmph. A gives B a start of 8 m and still beats him by 8 seconds. The speed of B is:

A) 5.15 kmph	B) 4.14 kmph
C) 4.25 kmph	D) 4.4 kmph

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4.14 kmph

Explanation:

A's speed = (5*5/15)m/sec = (25/18)m/sec

Time taken by A to cover 100 m = (100*18/15)sec = 72sec

Time taken by B to cover 92 m = (72 + 8) = 80 sec.

B's speed =(92/80*18/5)kmph =4.14kmph

Q:

In a 100 m race, A can give B 10 m and C 28 m. In the same race B can give C:

A) 18 m	B) 20 m
C) 27m	D) 9 m

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20 m

Explanation:

A : B = 100 : 90.

A : C = 100 : 72.

B:C = B/A*A/C = 90/100*100/72 = 90/72

When B runs 90 m, C runs 72 m.

When B runs 100 m, C runs (72/90*100)m = 80m

B can give C 20 m.
