D. 12 points
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & A:B = 60:45 \cr & A:C = 60:40 \cr & \therefore \frac{B}{C} = {\frac{B}{A} \times \frac{A}{C}} = {\frac{{45}}{{60}} \times \frac{{60}}{{40}}} \cr & = \frac{{45}}{{40}} = \frac{{90}}{{80}} = 90:80 \cr & \therefore {\text{B}}\,{\text{can}}\,{\text{give}}\,{\text{C}}\,{\text{10}}\,{\text{points}}\,{\text{in}}\,{\text{a}}\,{\text{game}}\,{\text{of}}\,{\text{90}} \cr} $$Related Questions on Races and Games
