Question 453439: A and B are cycling along the circular boundary of a playground. If they start toward each other from the opposite end of the diameter 150 m long with A riding at twice the speed of B, then find the distance traveled by B when two meet. Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! C=pi*d
=150pi m
150pi/2=75pi m. combined distance they travel.
b=b's speed
2b=a's speed
3b=their combined speed
75pi/3=25pi m. distance traveled by b.
