Q:

In a one km race A gives B a start of 100m and in a one km race B gives a start of 80 m to C. In a 1 km race who will win and by how much distance from the worst performer between two losers?

Answer

Ratio  of speeds of A:B = 1000:900 = 100:90


Ratio of speeds of B:C = 1000:920 = 100:92


Therefore, when A moves 1000m , B moves 900 m and when B moves 900m, C moves 828m


Thus,             


Since , C moves 8 % less than B in the same time . Thus, C is the worst performer and A will win by him by 172 m
