Tom and Jack “power walk” towards each other at the same time. Tom’s walking speed is 2.3 m/s, Jack’s speed is 2.2 m/s. They meet each other 1.5 minutes after they started. How far apart were they to begin with?

Answer:405 meters apart. I think the m means meters, if it meant miles that would be incredible :)


Step-by-step explanation: 2.3 times 1.5 minutes is 90 seconds, so 2.3 times 90=207. 2.2 times 90 =198. 207+198=405
