Vaidev and Tommy started jogging from the same point. Tommy started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Vaidev. Vaidev's jogging speed was 250 m/min and Tommy's jogging speed was 150 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

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

	Vaidev	Tommy
Speed	250 m/min	150 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		300 m

(a)
Distance that Tommy covered when he jogged 2 minutes earlier
= 2 x 150
= 300 m

Distance that Vaidev covered more than Tommy per min
= 250 - 150
= 100 m

Time that Vaidev needed to take to cover the additional 300 m
= 300 ÷ 100
= 3 min

(b)
Time that Tommy would had jogged when Vaidev caught up with him
= 3 + 2
= 5 min

Distance that Tommy would have jogged when Vaidev caught up with him
= 5 x 150
= 750 m

Answer(s): (a) 3 min; (b) 750 m
