Carl and Tom started jogging from the same point. Tom started jogging 8 minutes earlier than Carl. Carl's jogging speed was 400 m/min and Tom'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 Carl to catch up with Tom? 
2. What distance would Tom have jogged when Carl caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Carl	Tom
Speed	400 m/min	350 m/min
Start time		8 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		2800 m

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

Distance that Carl covered more than Tom per min
= 400 - 350
= 50 m

Time that Carl needed to take to cover the additional 2800 m
= 2800 ÷ 50
= 56 min

(b)
Time that Tom would had jogged when Carl caught up with him
= 56 + 8
= 64 min

Distance that Tom would have jogged when Carl caught up with him
= 64 x 350
= 22400 m

Answer(s): (a) 56 min; (b) 22400 m
