Julian and Perry started jogging from the same point. Perry started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Julian. Julian's jogging speed was 450 m/min and Perry's jogging speed was 300 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

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

	Julian	Perry
Speed	450 m/min	300 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		600 m

(a)
Distance that Perry covered when he jogged 2 minutes earlier
= 2 x 300
= 600 m

Distance that Julian covered more than Perry per min
= 450 - 300
= 150 m

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

(b)
Time that Perry would had jogged when Julian caught up with him
= 4 + 2
= 6 min

Distance that Perry would have jogged when Julian caught up with him
= 6 x 300
= 1800 m

Answer(s): (a) 4 min; (b) 1800 m
