@mathematicalpro "distance covered by Chelsea in 3hr shuld be same as distance covered by jaidee in 5 hrs.......so just equate the distances equation......." So vt = v1t1 or 5x = 3(x+26) -> x=39

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Add 26?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

U don't need to do that? If u know J speed, the question already told u C speed is J +26.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
