Question 483176: My brother and I go to the same school. My brother takes 8 minutes to walk to school, and I take 7 minutes. If he gets a 30-second head start one day, can I catch him before he gets to school? Explain without referring to any short-cut in your explanation Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you both start at the same time you will be there a minute before him. If he gets a 30 sec head start you will be there 30 sec before him.
