Bryan and George started jogging from the same point. George started jogging 2 minutes earlier than Bryan. Bryan's jogging speed was 400 m/min and George'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 Bryan to catch up with George? 
2. What distance would George have jogged when Bryan caught up with him?  Express your answer in meters.

	Bryan	George
Speed	400 m/min	300 m/min
Start time		2 min earlier
Extra distance covered at first		600 m

(a)
Distance that George covered when he jogged 2 minutes earlier
= 2 x 300
= 600 m

Distance that Bryan covered more than George per min
= 400 - 300
= 100 m

Time that Bryan needed to take to cover the additional 600 m
= 600 ÷ 100
= 6 min

(b)
Time that George would had jogged when Bryan caught up with him
= 6 + 2
= 8 min

Distance that George would have jogged when Bryan caught up with him
= 8 x 300
= 2400 m

Answer(s): (a) 6 min; (b) 2400 m
