In races, usually there is a common finish line for all the runners. Here are two square running tracks with the inner track of 100 m each side and outer track of 150 m each side. The common finishing line for both runners is shown by the flags in the figure which are in the center of one of the sides of the tracks. If the total race is of 350 m, then we have to find out where the starting positions of the two runners should be on these two tracks so that they both have a common finishing line after they run for 350 m. Mark the starting points of the runner on the inner track as ‘A’ and the runner on the outer track as ‘B’.

Inner track perimeter = 4 x 100 = 400 m. Outer track perimeter = 4 x 150 = 600 m. Starting positions should align so their distances equal 350 m. Use proportions to determine the start points.

    1. The inner track perimeter is 4 x 100 = 400 m, and the outer track perimeter is 4 x 150 = 600 m. To ensure both runners finish at the same point after 350 m, their starting points must account for their track perimeters. Use the ratio 350/400 for the inner track and 350/600 for the outer track to find relative start positions. This ensures both runners finish simultaneously at the common finish line.
