Respuesta :

When Shanti had crossed the finish line, she was a distance of 250 m ahead of Belle

How to calculate Constant Speed?

We are given;

Length of Race = 1000 m

When nina crossed the finish line, she was 200 m ahead of Shanti and 400 m ahead of Belle.

Thus;

Shanti had run 4/5 of the race when Nina finished.

So, if Nina's time was x, then by variation, we can say that;

Time it took Shanti to finish the race = 5/4x

So, Belle had run 5/4 * 600 = 750 meters when Shanti finished.

Thus, means Shanti was; 1000 - 750 = 250m ahead of Belle.
