B. 25 m

when A moves 200 M, B moves 169 M and C moves 182 M.

So when C moves 350 M, B will move 169*350/182 = 325 M

so C will beat B ( in race of 350 M) by 25 M ... option B

A:B=200:169
A:C=200:182
C/B=C/A*A/B=182/200*200/169
=182:169
WHEN C COVERS 182M, B COVERS 169 M
WHEN C COVERS 350M,B COVERS 169/182*350
=325M
SO C BEATS BY (350-325)=25M

A. 22.75 m
when In 200 hundred race when A has covered 200 m then B covered 169m and C covered 182m. It means C beat B in 182 m race by 13 m(182m-169m)

So if there is 350 m race between C & B only. So when C will cover 350 m then B will cover 169*350/182 = 325 m
so C will beat B in the race of 350 m by 25 m.
