In a race of 200 m, A can beat B by 31 m and C by 18 m. In a race of 350 m, C will beat B by:

22.75 m

25 m

19.5 m

7\( \frac { 4 } { 7 } \)m

Answer : Option B

Explanation :

A : B = 200 : 169.

A : C = 200 : 182.

\(\frac { C } { B } \) = [ \(\frac { C } { A } \) X \(\frac { A} {B } ]\) =[ \( \frac { 182 } {200 }\) X 350 ]m =325 m

Therefore, C beats B by (350 - 325) m = 25 m.
