A good way to set up percentage problems is by using "Part = Percent × Whole".
In this case, our part is 140, our percent is 80 (because that 20% wa s took of from the original 100%), and our whole is unknown. If we fill in the equation we get this:
140=80×x.
if we solve the equation by dividing both sides by 80, we get $1.75=x. Because we replaced 80% with 80,we have to divide by 100 since we multiplied by 100 in the beginning. So, we get that $175 was the original price.

If the runner moves at 6 miles per hour for 2 hours before the cyclist starts, the runner has a 12 mile lead at the beginning. If the cyclist is going at 16 miles per hour, he is overtaking the runner at 10 miles per hour, because 16-6=10. Then, the amount of time it takes the cyclist to go 2 miles in 10 miles per hour is the answer. this is 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes.
