उत्तर

24 meters 

Explanation:

Let A complete the race in t sec.

A's running speed`=100/"t"` m/sec

B's running speed`((100-200))/"t"=80/"t"` m/sec

Time taking by B to complete 100 m race

`=100/(80//"t")=5/4"t"`

C's running speed`=((100-5))/(5//4"t")=76/"t"`

Now, A beat C by a distance

`(100/"t"-76/"t")xx"t"` = 24 m
