In a 1000 m race, A beats B by 50 m and B beats C by 10 m. In the same race, by how many meters does A beat C?	Choose the correct answer
A) A)60m
B) B)829m
C) C)822m
D) D)929m
E) E)132mj
By the time A covers 1000 m, B covers  (1000 - 50)=

<output>950</output>
950 m.   By the time B covers 1000 m, C covers  (1000 - 10)= 
<gadget id="calculator"> (1000 - 10)</gadget>
<output>990</output>
990 m.   So, the ratio of speeds of A and C=   1000/950 * 1000/990 = 1000/940 So, by the time A covers 1000 m, C covers 940 m.   So in 1000 m race A beats C by 1000 - 940= 
<gadget id="calculator">1000 - 940</gadget>
<output>60</output>
60 m.   60mnswer:60m
<result>A</result>
In a 1000 m race, A beats B by 50 m and B beats C by 10 m. In the same race, by how many meters does A beat C?
