A
group of boys is playing cricket. Intezam is at the striker's end of
the pitch and Sachit is at the non-striker's end. Intezam hits the ball
far into the outfield and the batsmen start running. Each of them runs
at a constant speed, though their speeds are not necessarily equal. They
first cross each other at a distance of 9 ft from the striker's end
while running the first run. They immediately turn back for the second
run and cross each other at a distance of 3 ft from the non-striker's
end while running for the second run. After this, they turn back for the
third run and so on. What is the total distance (In feet) Sachit has
run when they cross each other for the third time?
