    A is twice as fast runner as B and B is thrice as fast runner as C. If C travelled a distance in 1 h 54 min. the time taken by B to cover the same distance is

    A) 19 min

    B)  38 min 

    C)  51 min

    D)  57 min

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Ratio of the speeds of A and B = A : B = 2 :1 = 6 : 3 B : C = 3 : 1\[\therefore \]A : B : C = 6 : 3 : 1 \[\therefore \] Ratio of their time taken \[=\frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{3}:1=1:2:6\] \[\therefore \] Time taken by \[\text{B}=\left( \frac{2}{6}\times 114 \right)\]min = 38 min
