There was a race between 3 people. Me, Doug and Anne. When I take 21 steps the distance covered is equal to Doug 24 steps and Anne 28 steps. I take 6 steps to every 7 steps of Doug and 8 steps of Anne. Who won the race?

Read Solution (Total 2)

Doug won the race.

Ratio of steps =6 : 7 : 8
and since, Distance covered in my 21steps = Distance covered in 24 steps of Doug = Distance covered in 24 steps of Anne
For a distance of 168 units,( LCM of 21, 24, 28 = 168 )
the ratio of distance covered in each step is, 8:7:6

so, the ratio of speeds is : 48 : 49 : 48,
Hence Doug won the race.
