Liam and Gabriel started jogging from the same point. Gabriel started jogging 6 minutes earlier than Liam. Liam's jogging speed was 250 m/min and Gabriel's jogging speed was 100 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

1. How long did it take for Liam to catch up with Gabriel? 
2. What distance would Gabriel have jogged when Liam caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Liam	Gabriel
Speed	250 m/min	100 m/min
Start time		6 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		600 m

(a)
Distance that Gabriel covered when he jogged 6 minutes earlier
= 6 x 100
= 600 m

Distance that Liam covered more than Gabriel per min
= 250 - 100
= 150 m

Time that Liam needed to take to cover the additional 600 m
= 600 ÷ 150
= 4 min

(b)
Time that Gabriel would had jogged when Liam caught up with him
= 4 + 6
= 10 min

Distance that Gabriel would have jogged when Liam caught up with him
= 10 x 100
= 1000 m

Answer(s): (a) 4 min; (b) 1000 m
