Caden and Carl started jogging from the same point. Carl started jogging 3 minutes earlier than Caden. Caden's jogging speed was 250 m/min and Carl's jogging speed was 100 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 Carl? 
2. What distance would Carl have jogged when Caden caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Caden	Carl
Speed	250 m/min	100 m/min
Start time		3 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		300 m

(a)
Distance that Carl covered when he jogged 3 minutes earlier
= 3 x 100
= 300 m

Distance that Caden covered more than Carl per min
= 250 - 100
= 150 m

Time that Caden needed to take to cover the additional 300 m
= 300 ÷ 150
= 2 min

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

Distance that Carl would have jogged when Caden caught up with him
= 5 x 100
= 500 m

Answer(s): (a) 2 min; (b) 500 m
