Question

2. X can run 650 m in 55 s and Y can run the same
distance in 1 min 5 s. By what distance can X beat
Y in the 650 m race?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:time taken by x to run a distance of 650m = 55sec

time taken by y to run a distance of 650m = 1min5sec = 65sec

Difference in time of completion of race = 65-55 = 10

Therefore, distance run by x in 1 sec = 650/55m

= 130/11m

Distance run by x in 10 sec = 130/11*10m = 118.18m.

Therefore, x can beat y by a distance of 118.18m in the 650m race.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

speed of x=650/55=130/11

speed of y=650/65=10

difference offer time to complete race 65-55=10

distance x beat y=130/11×10=118.8
