Correct Answer: 217.50 m
Solution :
In 1500 m race, Anil beats Bakul by 150 m.
When Anil completes the race, Bakul covers 1500 – 150 = 1350 m
Bakul beats Charles by 75 m in 1500 m race.
So in a 1350 m race, Bakul is ahead of Charles by $\frac{75}{1500}\times 1350=67.50$ m
So, Anil beats Charles by (150 + 67.5) = 217.50 m
Hence, the correct answer is 217.50 m.
