Correct Answer: 325 m
Solution : Time taken by Raman to complete 1170 m = 65 seconds Time taken by Mohan to complete 1170 m = 90 seconds Distance by which Raman beats Mohan = $\frac{\text{Distance}\times \text{Time difference}}{\text{Time taken by Mohan}}$ = $\frac{1170\times (90-65)}{90}$ = $325$ m Hence, the correct answer is $325$ m.
