Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance covered is 1440 meters.

Given:

The ratio of time taken to run certain distance by ram and mohan is 4:3 and thus mohan wins the race by 360m.

To find:

what is the distance to race course

Let the ratio of ram and mohan be 4a : 3a

Let a be 1 minute. Hence it takes 3 minutes for mohan to complete the race whereas 4 minutes for ram to complete the race.

Distance covered by ram in 1 minute = the remaining distance to be covered = 360 m

Hence in four minutes, total distance  = 360$\times$ 4 = 1440m.

Result:

The distance covered is 1440 meters.
