The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the start that B gets from A in an 800 m race where B runs 725 m while A runs the full distance of 800 m. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Problem**: - A runs a total distance of 800 meters. - B runs a distance of 725 meters. - We need to find out how much start (in meters) A gives to B. 2. **Identify the Distances**: - Distance covered by A = 800 m - Distance covered by B = 725 m 3. **Calculate the Start Given to B**: - The start given to B can be calculated by finding the difference between the distance A runs and the distance B runs. - Start given to B = Distance covered by A - Distance covered by B - Start given to B = 800 m - 725 m 4. **Perform the Calculation**: - Start given to B = 800 m - 725 m = 75 m 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the start that B gets from A is 75 meters. ### Final Answer: B gets a start of **75 meters** from A. ---
