Answer:

  • See below

Explanation:

Speed = distance/time

1. Logan swam 750 meters in 1/3 of an hour

Logan's speed is:

  • s = 750 : 1/3 = 750*3 = 2250 meters /hour

2. Mila swam 2/3 of Logan's distance:

  • 2/3*750 = 500 meters
  • Time is 1/4 of an hour

Mila's speed is:

  • s = 500 : 1/4 = 500 * 4 = 2000 meters/hour

3. The difference is:

Logan is faster by: 2250 - 2000 = 250 meters/hour
