Winning the windy-day race


Assignment:

Florence and Larry race on a windy day: 100 yards with the wind, they instantly turn around, and race 100 yards back against the wind. Larry is unaffected by the wind, but Florence only goes 90% as fast running against the wind as when running with no wind. Running with the wind improves Florence's no-wind speed by 10%. On a day with no wind, Florence and Larry tie in a 100-yard race. Who wins the windy-day race, and by how much?

Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
