Answer:

No the dog cant catch up with Donovan

Explanation:

30km to meters is 30000

30000 meters divided by 60 to to get how many meters per second

= 500 a dog travels 500 meters per minute

100m divided by 9.87 = 10.1 meters per second

500 divided by 60 = 8.3 meters per second

Donovan can run faster than the dog by 1.8 meters per second
