Question #1 Report Error
In a 200-meter race, A finishes in 22 seconds and B finishes in 25 seconds. By what distance does A beat B?
A. 26 meters
B. 22 meters
C. 24 meters
D. 25 meters

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Speed of B = 200 / 25 = 8 m/s. Distance covered by B when A crosses the finish line at 22 seconds = 8 * 22 = 176 meters. Winning margin = 200 - 176 = 24 meters.

Question #2 Report Error
A car covers a certain distance at 45 km/h. If it increases its speed to 60 km/h, it arrives 30 minutes earlier. Find the total distance.
A. 100 km
B. 80 km
C. 90 km
D. 120 km

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Time difference = 30 minutes = 0.5 hours. Let distance be d. d / 45 - d / 60 = 0.5 => (4d - 3d) / 180 = 0.5 => d / 180 = 0.5 => d = 90 km.

Question #3 Report Error
A car tracks a total segment of 360 km. If the uniform speed is boosted by 15 km/h, it covers the course in 4 hours flat. Find the original speed.
A. 75 km/h
B. 80 km/h
C. 70 km/h
D. 85 km/h

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
New speed = 360 / 4 = 90 km/h. Since the new speed is 15 km/h faster than original speed, original speed = 90 - 15 = 75 km/h.
