Math Problem Statement
Red and blue runners stand opposite each other on a 400 meter long track. Each side, A,B,C and D is 100 meters long. There are therefore 200 meters between them.
Red runs at 12.7 km/h and Blue runs at 11.3 km/h
.
Question:
Where on the field does Red run catch up with Blue?
It must be noted with Side length+Number of meters,
e.g. B77.42 (2 decimal places, please)
