Answer:

Rico and Josh were 2.22 km apart from each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rico and Josh took off on skateboards going in the same direction.

After 20 minutes, Rico had traveled 5.98 kilometers and Josh had gone 8.2 kilometers.

Assuming that initially both were at the same point.

So, the final distance D between the two is:

D = $8.2-5.98 =2.22$ km

Hence, Rico and Josh were 2.22 km apart from each other.
