Answer:

At first glance anyone would assume Amy would reach the school first because she is traveling at a faster rate. However, this is only true when both kids are in the same starting place. The question doesn't give us enough information to verify that answer because we don't know the location of the starting place. Perhaps Jeremy would reach the school first because his Aunt's house's closer to the school, even though he is traveling at a slower rate....
