      Question

      In a 800 metres race, Tanya beats Ravi by 160 metres and

      Sumit by 240 metres. By how many metres does Ravi beat Sumit in the same race?
      A 100 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 180 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 160 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 200 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      When Tanya runs 800 metres, Ravi runs (800 – 160 = 640 metres)

      When Tanya runs 800 metres, Sumit runs (800 – 240 = 560 metres)

      So, the ratio of the distance covered by Tanya, Ravi, and Sumit when Tanya runs 800 metres respectively:

      = 800:640:560 = 20:16:14

      Distance covered by Sumit when Ravi completes 800 m = (800/16) Γ— 14 = 700 metres

      Therefore, Ravi beats Sumit by (800 – 700 = 100 metres)
