A can give B 100 meters start and C 300 meters start in a kilometer race. How much start can B give C in a kilometer race? Options.
A) 110.22 meters B) 111.22 meters C) 222.22 meters D) 333.22 meters E) none of these

Rationale: "explanation : a runs 1000 meters while b runs 900 meters and c runs 700 meters . therefore , b runs 900 meters while c runs 700 meters . so , the number of meters that c runs when b runs 1000 meters = ( 1000 x 700 ) / 900 = 777.77 meters thus , b can give c ( 1000 - 777.77 ) = 222.22 meters start answer : c"
Answer: C
