    seconds. Find the time taken by A to finish the race?
    A 3 min 14 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2 min 12 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3 min 20 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 3 min 25 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    It is obvious that B runs 30 meters in 6 seconds. So total time taken by B to finish the race =6/30×1000=200 seconds So time taken by A to finish the race = 200-6 = 194 seconds or 3 minute 14 seconds
