Ken and Zane started jogging from the same point. Zane started jogging 9 minutes earlier than Ken. Ken's jogging speed was 450 m/min and Zane'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 Ken to catch up with Zane? 
2. What distance would Zane have jogged when Ken caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Ken	Zane
Speed	450 m/min	300 m/min
Start time		9 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		2700 m

(a)
Distance that Zane covered when he jogged 9 minutes earlier
= 9 x 300
= 2700 m

Distance that Ken covered more than Zane per min
= 450 - 300
= 150 m

Time that Ken needed to take to cover the additional 2700 m
= 2700 ÷ 150
= 18 min

(b)
Time that Zane would had jogged when Ken caught up with him
= 18 + 9
= 27 min

Distance that Zane would have jogged when Ken caught up with him
= 27 x 300
= 8100 m

Answer(s): (a) 18 min; (b) 8100 m
