Let they meet at a distance of Y from start, after time t of Rahul start According to the question 40x(5+t) = 50t
=> 200+40t = 50t
=> T= 200/10 = 20min
=> Y= 50 x t = 50 x 20 = 1000m
1000m from the options it is evident that all options expect 1200m are smaller than 1000m and dog in any case has to move more than 1000m.
