Caden and Dylan started jogging from the same point. Dylan started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Caden. Caden's jogging speed was 500 m/min and Dylan'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 Caden to catch up with Dylan? 
2. What distance would Dylan have jogged when Caden caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Caden	Dylan
Speed	500 m/min	300 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		600 m

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

Distance that Caden covered more than Dylan per min
= 500 - 300
= 200 m

Time that Caden needed to take to cover the additional 600 m
= 600 ÷ 200
= 3 min

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

Distance that Dylan would have jogged when Caden caught up with him
= 5 x 300
= 1500 m

Answer(s): (a) 3 min; (b) 1500 m
