Anil runs 600 meters race in 120 seconds and Rahul runs the same distance in 150 seconds. By what distance will Anil beats Rahul in a 600 meters race? A. 480 less than the length of race track B. 150 C. 60% of 250 D. (6/5) of (2/3) of 150 Correct Answer A and D

Given:

Distance of the race track = 600 meters

Time taken by Anil to cover the distance = 120 seconds

Time taken by Rahul to cover the distance = 150 seconds

Calculation:

Speed of Anil = 600/120 = 5 m/sec

Speed of Rahul = 600/150 = 4 m/sec

⇒ Distance covered by Rahul in 120 seconds = 4 × 120 = 480 meters

Distance between Anil and Rahul when Anil finishes the race = 600 – 480 = 120 meters

A. 480 less than the length of race track

480 less than the length of race track = 600 – 480 = 120 meters

A is correct.

D. (6/5) of (2/3) of 150

⇒ (4/5) × 150

⇒ 120

D is correct.

∴ A and D are correct.
