Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 6 metres

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When A runs 100m, B runs 90m and C runs 87m. When B runs 90m, C runs 87m. When B runs 180m, C runs \( \frac{87}{90} \times 180 = 87 \times 2 = 174 \)m. B beats C by \( 180 - 174 = 6 \)m.
