Word problem:

Two joggers, one averaging 6 mph and one averaging 5 mph, start from a designated initial point. The slower jogger arrives at the end of the run 30 minutes after the other jogger. Find the distance of the run.



Answer :

The race was 2.5 miles because an hour divided by 2 is 30 minutes. Therefore you have to do the same thing to the 5 and 2.5 multiplied by 2 is 5.
