Ian and Owen started jogging from the same point. Owen started jogging 4 minutes earlier than Ian. Ian's jogging speed was 400 m/min and Owen'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 Ian to catch up with Owen? 
2. What distance would Owen have jogged when Ian caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Ian	Owen
Speed	400 m/min	350 m/min
Start time		4 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		1400 m

(a)
Distance that Owen covered when he jogged 4 minutes earlier
= 4 x 350
= 1400 m

Distance that Ian covered more than Owen per min
= 400 - 350
= 50 m

Time that Ian needed to take to cover the additional 1400 m
= 1400 ÷ 50
= 28 min

(b)
Time that Owen would had jogged when Ian caught up with him
= 28 + 4
= 32 min

Distance that Owen would have jogged when Ian caught up with him
= 32 x 350
= 11200 m

Answer(s): (a) 28 min; (b) 11200 m
