A cyclist and a jogger cover a certain distance at a certain speed. If the jogger covers one-third of the distance covered by cyclist in double of the time as that taken by the cyclist, the ratio of the speed of the jogger to that of the cyclist is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 1 : 6.
According to question,
Ratio of distance of Jogger and Cyclist = 1 : 3
Ratio of time taken by Jogger and Cyclist = 2 : 1
Hence ratio of speeds of Jogger and Cyclist = Ratio of distance/ratio of time = 1/2 : 3 = 1 : 6
