      Question

      Ratio of speeds of β€˜A’ and β€˜B’ is 5:7,

      respectively. If they participate in a 350-metre race and β€˜B’ gives β€˜A’, a head start of β€˜m’ metres, then they finish the race at the same time. Find the value of β€˜m’.
      A 110 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 120 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 100 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 130 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the distance covered by β€˜A’ in the time β€˜B’ covers 350 metres be β€˜x’ metres (x/350) = (5/7) Or, x = 250 So, m = 350 – 250 = 100 metres
