Daniel and George started jogging from the same point. George started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Daniel. Daniel's jogging speed was 250 m/min and George's jogging speed was 200 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

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

	Daniel	George
Speed	250 m/min	200 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		400 m

(a)
Distance that George covered when he jogged 2 minutes earlier
= 2 x 200
= 400 m

Distance that Daniel covered more than George per min
= 250 - 200
= 50 m

Time that Daniel needed to take to cover the additional 400 m
= 400 ÷ 50
= 8 min

(b)
Time that George would had jogged when Daniel caught up with him
= 8 + 2
= 10 min

Distance that George would have jogged when Daniel caught up with him
= 10 x 200
= 2000 m

Answer(s): (a) 8 min; (b) 2000 m
