    A) 7 min

    B)  14 min 

    C)  28 min

    D)  63 min

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let C's speed be x m/min. Then, B's speed = 3x m/min and A's speed = 6x m/min Ratio of speeds of A and C = Ratio of times taken by C and A A, \[6x:x=42:y\]min \[\Rightarrow \frac{6x}{x}=\frac{42}{y}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[y=\frac{42}{6}\]min = 7 min
