The correct option is B 600 km
If S1 is the speed of the first car, then (S1+10) will be the second car's speed. If t1 hours is time required for the first car, then (t1−1) hours is the time required for the second car in covering the same distance, while that of the third car is (t1−33.3360) hours.
