      Question

      In a 900 meter marathon, if Akhil beats Suraj by 150

      meters and Suraj beats Puneet by 300 meters, then find the distance by which Akhil beats ‘C’.
      A 400 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 272 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 380 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 390 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Distance covered by Suraj in the same time that Akhil takes to cover 900 meter = 900 – 150 = 750 meters Distance covered by Puneet in the same time that Suraj takes to cover 900 meter = 900 – 300 = 600 meters Distance covered by Puneet in the same time that Suraj takes to cover 750 meter = (600/900) × 750 = 500 meters Therefore, Akhil will beat Puneet by = (900 – 500) = 400 meters
