Question

In the given marathon race track, the distance between the halt and the finish point is .

• A. $\text{2,520 m}$
• B. $\text{2,630 m}$
• C. $\text{2,370 m}$
• D. $\text{2,460 m}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\text{2,630 m}$

$\text{The total length of the marathon}$ $\text{track = 3,750 m}$

$\text{The distance between the start point}$ $\text{and the halt = 1.12 km}$

$\text{To calculate the distance between}$ $\text{the halt and the finish line, we have to subtract}$
$\text{the distance between start to halt point}$
$\text{from the total length}$ $\text{of the track.}$


$\text{We know that,}$ $\text{1 km = 1,000 m}$


$\text{So, we will multiply 1.12 with 1,000.}$

$\text{So, 1.12 km}=1.12\times 1\text{Km}$
$=1.12\times 1000\text{m}$
$=1,120\text{m}$

So, calculating the distance between the halt to finish point is:

$⟹$ $\text{3,750 - 1,120 = 2,630 m}$


$\text{Thus, the distance between the halt}$ $\text{to finish point is 2,630 meters.}$
