In a race of 1200 m, Ram can beat Shyam by 200 m or by 20 sec. What must be the speed of Ram?

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Shyam's speed = $$\frac{{200}}{{20}}$$ = 100 m/sec. Time constant
\[\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {}&{{\text{Ram}}}&{}&{{\text{Shyam}}} \\ {{\text{Distance}} \to }&{1200}&:&{1000} \\ {}&{12}&:&{10} \\ {{\text{Speed}} \to }&{12}&:&{10 = 12} \end{array}\]
