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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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