Ahmad and Cody started jogging from the same point. Cody started jogging 10 minutes earlier than Ahmad. Ahmad's jogging speed was 500 m/min and Cody'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 Ahmad to catch up with Cody? 
2. What distance would Cody have jogged when Ahmad caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Ahmad	Cody
Speed	500 m/min	300 m/min
Start time		10 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		3000 m

(a)
Distance that Cody covered when he jogged 10 minutes earlier
= 10 x 300
= 3000 m

Distance that Ahmad covered more than Cody per min
= 500 - 300
= 200 m

Time that Ahmad needed to take to cover the additional 3000 m
= 3000 ÷ 200
= 15 min

(b)
Time that Cody would had jogged when Ahmad caught up with him
= 15 + 10
= 25 min

Distance that Cody would have jogged when Ahmad caught up with him
= 25 x 300
= 7500 m

Answer(s): (a) 15 min; (b) 7500 m
