There is a 50m long army platoon marching ahead. The last
person in the platoon wants to give a letter to the first
person leading the platoon. So while the platoon is
marching he runs ahead, reaches the first person and hands
over the letter to him and without stopping he runs and
comes back to his original position.
In the mean time the whole platoon has moved ahead by 50m.
The question is how much distance did the last person cover
in that time. Assuming that he ran the whole distance with
uniform speed.

150
Since the platoon has covered 50m overall and they are moving with uniform speed, we can say it covers 25m when the man comes from last to first(forward) and another 25m when he comes last again(backward).
50m (platoon length)+25+50(platoon length)+25=150m
