Sukriti and Saloni are athletes. Sukriti covers a distance of 1 km in 5 minutes and 50 seconds, while Saloni covers the same distance in 6 minutes and 4 seconds. If both of them start together and run at uniform speed, approximately by what distance will Sukriti win a 5 km mini marathon:
Sukriti covers a distance of 1 km in 5 minutes and 50 seconds therefore will cover 5 kms in 25 mins 250 secs = 29.16 mins
Saloni covers the 1 km in 6 minutes and 4 seconds therefore her speed is $$\frac{1}{6.06}$$ kms per minute
Therefore Distance Covered by Saloni inĀ 29.16 mins isĀ 29.16 mins*$$\frac{1}{6.06}$$ $$\approx$$ 4.8 kmsĀ
Therefore the distance with which Sukriti will win a 5 km mini marathon is $$\approx$$ 200 meters
therefore our answer is option 'B'
