Question
If a boy takes as much time in running 10 meters as a car takes in covering 25 meters; the distance covered by the boy during the time the car covers 1 km is: (in meters)Options40042540
Solution
The problem states that the boy runs 10 meters in the same time it takes a car to cover 25 meters. This means the boy's speed is 10/25 = 0.4 times the speed of the car.
If the car covers 1 km (or 1000 meters), the boy would cover 0.4 * 1000 = 400 meters.
So, the answer is 400 meters.
