Three runners A, B and C run a race, with runner A finishing 12 meters ahead of runner B and 18 meters ahead of runner C, while runner B finishes 8 meters ahead of runner C. Each runner travels the entire distance at a constant speed. The length of the race is
36 metres
48 metres
60 metres

B.
48 metres
Let A finishes x m which is the required distance
Now, according to question,
B finishes in (x -12) m
C finishes in (x - 18) m
Again, If B finishes in x m then c finishes in (x - 8)m
....(i)
...(ii)
Equate (i) and (ii)
Clearly, Option(B) i.e. 48 satisfy both the equation.
