Question

Any jogs 1/3 of a mile in 1/5 of an hour while john takes 1/30 of an hour to jog 1/5 of an mile if they continued at this rate who would jog farther in one hour and by how much?

Answer 1

At the end of one hour, John would be ahead of Anny by 4.33 miles

Explanation:

In this question, we are to state who jogs Farther between these. 2 persons per hour.

Any jogs 1/3 of a mile in 1/5 of an hour, what this means that he jogs one-third of a mile in 1/5 * 60 in 12 minutes

John however jogs 1/5 miles in 1/30 of hour. This means he jugs one-fifth of a mile in 1/30 * 60 in 2 minutes

Let’s go back to Any

if Any jogs 1/3 in 12 minutes, then the whole lap will be completed in 36 minutes

Thus if he can jog 1 mile in 36 minutes, then in 60 minutes he would have jogged 1.67 miles

If he Jogs 1/5 in 2 minutes, this mean that the whole lap of 1 mile would be completed in 10 minutes

Thus if he can jug 1 mile in 10 minutes, then in 60 minutes, he will be able to jug a whopping 6 miles

This shows that John is actually faster than Any.

By how much distance? that would be 6 - 1.67 = 4.33 miles
