Archie and Jenson started jogging from the same point. Jenson started jogging 6 minutes earlier than Archie. Archie's jogging speed was 500 m/min and Jenson'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 Archie to catch up with Jenson? 
2. What distance would Jenson have jogged when Archie caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Archie	Jenson
Speed	500 m/min	250 m/min
Start time		6 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		1500 m

(a)
Distance that Jenson covered when he jogged 6 minutes earlier
= 6 x 250
= 1500 m

Distance that Archie covered more than Jenson per min
= 500 - 250
= 250 m

Time that Archie needed to take to cover the additional 1500 m
= 1500 ÷ 250
= 6 min

(b)
Time that Jenson would had jogged when Archie caught up with him
= 6 + 6
= 12 min

Distance that Jenson would have jogged when Archie caught up with him
= 12 x 250
= 3000 m

Answer(s): (a) 6 min; (b) 3000 m
