Solution

The correct option is D 32 m
Distance needs to cover by Alex to complete the race = 15 m
Rohit is 8 m behind Alex.
Distance needs to cover by Rohit to complete the race = 15 m + 8 m = 23 m
Arun is 9 m behind Rohit.
So, the distance needs to be covered by Arun to complete the race = 23 m + 9 m = 32 m.

Distance Rehan has to cover to complete the race = 100 m - 88 m = 12 m
