Question

If A person sets off jogging along a canal path at 12Km/h at the same time as a boat sets off at 10Km/h how far will each one travel in half an hour

Answer 1

jogger: 6 km

boat: 5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 hr = 0.5 hr

distance = rate x time

jogger: d = rt = (12 km/hr)(0.50 hr) = 6 km

boat: d = (10 km/hr)(0.50 hr) = 5 km
