How can B get ahead of A by 36m and C by 24m at the same time Then ATQ difference between B and A would be 12cm. Please rectify language error if any

Question:

Three athletes A, B and C run a race, B finished 24 metres ahead of C and 36 m ahead of A, while C finished 16 m ahead of A. If each athlete runs the entire distance at their respective constant speeds, what is the length of the race ?

Options:
A)

108 m

B)

90 m

C)

80 m

D)

96 m

Solution:

Ans: (d)

Let length of the race be ‘d’

When B finished the race, A and C would have run (d – 36) and (d – 24) metres respectively and when C finishes the race, A would be have run (d – 16) m.

The ratio of speed of C and A is

d-24d-36=dd-16    

So, d = 96 m
