At 11 25, Peter left Town F for Town G, driving at a speed of 68 km/h. At 14 25, Glen also left Town F for Town G driving at a certain speed. Both of them did not change their speed throughout the journey. At 16 25, both of them passed a mosque that was 204 km away from Town G. How many minutes earlier did Glen reach Town G than Peter?
Duration that Peter travelled from 11 25 to 16 25 = 5 h
Distance that Peter travelled
= 5 x 68
= 340 km
Distance between Town F and Town G
= 340 + 204
= 544 km
Since Glen passed the mosque at the same time as Peter, it means that Glen travelled 340 km in 2 hours.
Glen's speed during the journey
= 340 ÷ 2
= 170 km/h
Duration that Glen took to reach Town G after passing the mosque
= 204 ÷ 170
= 1.2 h
Duration that Peter took to reach Town G after passing the mosque
= 204 ÷ 68
= 3 h
Difference between the time they took to reach Town G
= 3 - 1.2
= 1.8 h
1 h = 60 min
1.8 h = 1.8 x 60 = 108 min
Glen reached Town G 108 minutes earlier than Peter.
Answer(s): 108 min
