Answer: If numbers given separate, 2mph for walking and 4mph for jogging, if together, 3mph

Step-by-step explanation: They can jog twice as fast as they can walk, but it's only 2mph faster, so walking speed must be 2mph and jogging speed must be 4mph as they are the only numbers that line up with that criteria
