Jonathan is driving to his grandma’s house. Jonathan’s car is going 75 mph and he has to go 340 miles still. Brighton, Jonathan’s cousin, is leaving his house and is traveling 70 mph and has to go 320 miles. Who gets to grandma’s house first? How long did it take him?

Answer: Jonathan will get to his grandma's house first because his car is going 5 mph faster than Brighton's. It will take Jonathan 4 hours and 48 minutes to get to his grandma's house.
