    6km

    Step-by-step explanation:

    OK ... lets say adam runs at 24 km / hr finishes in 1 hour

    charles is 12 km behind ... he is only 1/2 way through ... must be running at 12 km/hr he will finish in 2 hours

    ben is 8km behind he has run 16 km in one hour 16 km/hr he will finish in 1 1/2

    Charles done in 2 hours

    whne Ben finishes Charles is still 30 minutes behind x 12/km/hr = 6 km
