A wheel makes 1000 revolutions to cover a distance of 880 meters. Find the diameter of the wheel.
A. 32 cm
B. 35 cm
C. 28 cm
D. 24 cm
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Distance covered in 1 revolution = 880 / 1000 = 0.88 meters = 88 cm. Circumference = 2 * (22/7) * r = 88 cm => (44/7) * r = 88 => r = 14 cm. Diameter = 2r = 28 cm.

In a 600-meter race, A finishes in 66 seconds and B finishes in 75 seconds. By what distance does A beat B?
A. 75 meters
B. 68 meters
