Answer: 2 hrs 40 min

Step-by-step explanation: Ok I might be wrong so try to do other people's answers instead of mine.

So your friend is going 6 miles per hour, so he/she will be there in an hour

But you are going 3.5 miles an hour.

So what I did was divide 3.5 by 5 and 60 by 5 and found out that you are going 0.5 miles every 20 min. Then I added up the distance and time and got 6 miles every 2 hrs and 40 min

REMINDER: I might be wrong because I haven't done this question before, but tell me if I'm right or not! :D
