Answer 2

Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference between B and C in 500 m race is 200 m.

Difference between B and C in 100 m race is 40 m.

So , every 10 m B moves , C moves 6 m.

Difference between A and B in 1000 m race is 200 m.

Difference between A and B in 100 m race is 20 m.

Difference between A and B in 200 m race is 40 m.

So when A is at 200 m , B will be at 160 m.

When B is at 160 m , C moves 16*6 m.

So, when B is at 160 m , C will be at 96 m.

Distance between A and C is 200 - 96 = 104 m
