Edit:
I think I finally understood. The network topology looks like this:
source - link#1 - router#1 - link#2 - router#2 - link#3 - router#3 - link#4 - dest
Let us first consider this from the point of view of the source. We send message package by package. As soon as we put the first packet in the wire, we send the second, then the third, etc. How long does it take to put all 100 packets in a wire?
100 * 1500B * 8(b/B) / 100 Mb/s = 12 ms
- , dest. , , # 100 №1, .
20km/(2 * 10^8 m/s) = 0.1 ms - to get to the router#1
1500B * 8(b/B) / 100 Mb/s = 0.12 ms - to put it on the link#2
20km/(2 * 10^8 m/s) = 0.1 ms - to get to the router#2
1500B * 8(b/B) / 100 Mb/s = 0.12 ms - to put it on the link#3
20km/(2 * 10^8 m/s) = 0.1 ms - to get to the router#3
1500B * 8(b/B) / 100 Mb/s = 0.12 ms - to put it on the link#4
20km/(2 * 10^8 m/s) = 0.1 ms - to get to the dest
