Question

You and a friend start out at the same time on a 10-km run. Your friend runs at a steady 2.7m/s. How fast do you have to run if you want to finish the run 15 minutes before your friend?

Answer 1

(2.7 m\s)*(10,000 m)= friends time (in seconds)

convert friends time to minutes (or 15 mins to seconds)

(your speed)*(10,000 m)= (friends time - 15 min)

Answer 2

Thank you!
