Daniel and Zane started jogging from the same point. Zane started jogging 5 minutes earlier than Daniel. Daniel's jogging speed was 300 m/min and Zane's jogging speed was 250 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

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

	Daniel	Zane
Speed	300 m/min	250 m/min
Start time		5 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		1250 m

(a)
Distance that Zane covered when he jogged 5 minutes earlier
= 5 x 250
= 1250 m

Distance that Daniel covered more than Zane per min
= 300 - 250
= 50 m

Time that Daniel needed to take to cover the additional 1250 m
= 1250 ÷ 50
= 25 min

(b)
Time that Zane would had jogged when Daniel caught up with him
= 25 + 5
= 30 min

Distance that Zane would have jogged when Daniel caught up with him
= 30 x 250
= 7500 m

Answer(s): (a) 25 min; (b) 7500 m
