    I will rearrange your question:

    Miguel and his brother Ario are both standing 3 meters from one side of a 25-meter pool when they decide to race. Miguel offers Ario a head start. Miguel says he will start when the ratio of Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4. How many meters will Ario swim before Miguel starts the race

    Case 1

    Race = 25 meter

    Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4

    Completed meter = 1 / (1+4) * 25 = 5 meter

    Ario swim before Miguel starts the race = 5 m

    Case 2

    Total Race = 3 + 25 = 28 m

    Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4

    Completed meter = 1 / (1+4) * 28 = 5.6 meter

    Ario's Swim = 5.6 - 3 = 2.6 m

    Ario swim before Miguel starts the race = 2.6 m
