Hi Amit,

W-4> You are running in a running race, which consists of 100 Participants(Including you).
A> What will be your position if you overtake the second person?
B> What will be your position if you overtake the last person?

My answer is.....
A= Second
B= 99 (I should over take myself from the last position(100) by overtaking the one(99)who is before me. Then my position becomes 99.

As Sridhar had told the answer I think no need to tell more.Yet I type my answer here.

A-> 2 (Before overtaking I was third)
b-> 99 (Before overtaking I was the last man)

I think now its time for answer..
Sridhar & Abid Both of you have answered 1st question correctly :)

But about second... :(
If you were last man then, how can you overtake yourself.
If you overtake still you will be last.
You CANNOT overtake the LAST person !!

Next puzzle will be on soon... :)
