Problema Solution

Nick is walking at 3 mph, and Jessica is jogging at 6 mph. How long after will they be 3 mi apart?

Answer provided by our tutors

we assume they are jogging in the same direction and that they started from the same place at the same time


relative speed is 6-3=3 mph


distance = speed * time

time = distance/speed


3 mi / 3mph = 1 hour


in 1 hour they would be 3 miles apart
