Solution

The correct option is D Neeraj

Distance covered by Aman = 88.06 m
Distance covered by Neeraj = 88.76 m
Distance covered by Javed = 88.56 m
Distance covered by Vikram = 88.23 m
Distance covered by Hitesh = 88.55 m

Since the ones and tens places are same (88) for all the five numbers, we have to compare the tenths place after the decimal.
88.76 has 7 in tenths place after the decimal, which is the largest among the numbers.

Therefore 88.76 is the largest among the 5 numbers and hence Neeraj is the winner.
