Question 635197: My friend and i are heading to board a plane. My friend rides on an escalator while i walk along side the escalator. If my friend is travelling at 6 miles per hour while i am walking at 4 miles per hour. How far (approximately) will my friend be ahead of me after 20 minutes?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Your fiend is gaining at 2 mph for 1/3 of an hour so he gains 2/3 of a mile in 20 minutes. Where is there a 2 miles long escalator?
