Solution

Solution:

Total Gain of Satish = 10 sec + 20 sec + 15 sec + 41 seconds = 86 seconds
Satish's loss = 1 minute + 27 seconds = 60 seconds + 27 seconds = 87 seconds
Net result of the Race of Satish = total gain - total loss
= 86 sec - 87 sec
= -1 seconds

Hence Satish lost the game by 1 second .
