In a km race, Ashok beats Raman by 30 meters or 12 seconds. Find Ashok’s approximate time over the course?

2) 7 min.
3) 5.5 min.
4) 4.3 min.

6) 8.5 min.
7) 7.7 min.
8) 6.46 min.

As given, Raman covers 30 m in 12 seconds.
Raman’s time over the course = 12/30 x1000 = 400 seconds
Ashok’s time over the course = (400 – 12) = 388 seconds = 6.46 minutes

G.S.Kantharao

30mts travelled in 12 seconds
Speed =30/12=5/2
For 970m it takes 970*2/5=388seconds=6.46minutes
At that time Ashok completes.
So my option is 8👈
