\n" ); document.write( "The statement of the problem is deficient; the statement that they both run clockwise doesn't tell us anything.

\n" ); document.write( "If, at the start, Jerry is 100 meters \"behind\" Kenny on the 400 meter track, then he has to make up 100 meters to catch up; but if he is already 100 meters \"ahead\" of Kenny, then he has to make up 300 meters to catch up.

\n" ); document.write( "Re-post the problem, making the problem clear.
