Answer» If A covers 400m, B covers 395 m If B covers 400m, C covers 396 m If D covers 400m, C covers 384 m Now if B covers 395 m, then C will cover 396/400×395=391.05m If C covers 391.05 m, then D will cover 400/384×391.05=407.24 If A and D RUN over 400 m, then D win by 7.2 m (approx.) If A covers 400m, B covers 395 m If B covers 400m, C covers 396 m If D covers 400m, C covers 384 m Now if B covers 395 m, then C will cover 396/400×395=391.05m If C covers 391.05 m, then D will cover 400/384×391.05=407.24 If A and D run over 400 m, then D win by 7.2 m (approx.) |
