Mario and Luigi jog 10m. Mario runs more rapidly than Luigi. When he reaches 10m, Luigi has only jogged 7m. Mario decides that he will add 3m to his race. They restart the race and Mario wins once more. Question: Why?

Mario 10m = Luigi 7m Mario 1m=Luigi 0.7m so, Mario 3m =Luigi 2.1m Finally 13m of Mario = 9.1m of Luigi.
