In a 700 m race, the ratio of speeds of two participants A and B is 5: 6. If A has a start of 150 m, then the distance by which A wins the race is :
- A 80 m
- B 40 m
- C 75 m
- D 100 m
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 40 m
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A's distance to cover \( = 700 \text{ m} - 150 \text{ m} = 550 \text{ m} \) Distance covered by B \( = \frac{S_B}{S_A} \times 550 \text{ m} \) \( = \frac{6}{5} \times 550 \text{ m} = 660 \text{ m} \) A wins by \( = 700 \text{ m} - 660 \text{ m} = 40 \text{ m} \)
