Three digital clocks A, B, and C run at different rates and do not have simultaneous readings

Question:

Three digital clocks A, B, and C run at different rates and do not have simultaneous readings of zero. Figure 1-6 shows simultaneous readings on pairs of the clocks for four occasions. (At the earliest occasion, for example, B reads 25.0s and C reads 92.0s.) If two events are 600s apart on clock A, how far apart are they on?

(a) Clock B and

(b) Clock C?

(c) When clock A reads 400 s, what does clock B read?

(d) When clock C reads 15.0 s, what does clock B read? (Assume negative readings for pre-zerotimes.)
