In 100 m race, A covers the distance in 36 seconds and B in 45 seconds. In this race A beats B by:

  • A.20 m
  • B.25 m
  • C.22.5 m
  • D.9 m

Answer: A

A finishes in 36 seconds. In that time B, who needs 45 seconds for the full 100 m, covers

\[ 100 \times \frac{36}{45} = 80 \text{ m} \]

\[ \text{A beats B by } 100 - 80 = 20 \text{ m} \]

The 9-second difference is B's time for the remaining 20 m, at \( \tfrac{100}{45} = 2.22 \) m/s.
