Asher and Andy started jogging from the same point. Andy started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Asher. Asher's jogging speed was 250 m/min and Andy's jogging speed was 200 m/min. They went in the same direction and did not change their speeds throughout.

1. How long did it take for Asher to catch up with Andy? 
2. What distance would Andy have jogged when Asher caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Asher	Andy
Speed	250 m/min	200 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		400 m

(a)
Distance that Andy covered when he jogged 2 minutes earlier
= 2 x 200
= 400 m

Distance that Asher covered more than Andy per min
= 250 - 200
= 50 m

Time that Asher needed to take to cover the additional 400 m
= 400 ÷ 50
= 8 min

(b)
Time that Andy would had jogged when Asher caught up with him
= 8 + 2
= 10 min

Distance that Andy would have jogged when Asher caught up with him
= 10 x 200
= 2000 m

Answer(s): (a) 8 min; (b) 2000 m
