Rael and Gabriel started jogging from the same point. Gabriel started jogging 8 minutes earlier than Rael. Rael's jogging speed was 450 m/min and Gabriel's jogging speed was 350 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

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

	Rael	Gabriel
Speed	450 m/min	350 m/min
Start time		8 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		2800 m

(a)
Distance that Gabriel covered when he jogged 8 minutes earlier
= 8 x 350
= 2800 m

Distance that Rael covered more than Gabriel per min
= 450 - 350
= 100 m

Time that Rael needed to take to cover the additional 2800 m
= 2800 ÷ 100
= 28 min

(b)
Time that Gabriel would had jogged when Rael caught up with him
= 28 + 8
= 36 min

Distance that Gabriel would have jogged when Rael caught up with him
= 36 x 350
= 12600 m

Answer(s): (a) 28 min; (b) 12600 m
