Answer:
Race completed in 48 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of Max on hoverboard is = x
Then as per question speed of Victoria on hoverboard = 3x
Now it has been given in the question that speed of Victoria on foot is 1/3 of the speed of Max on hoverboard that will be = x/3
Now we will form the equation.
As we know the formula speed = distance/time
Let the time taken by both to complete the race be t minutes.
Distance covered by Victoria in 12 minutes + Distance covered by Victoria on foot = distance covered by Max on hoverboard
Then the equation will be
12(3x)+(1/3)x(t-12)=xt
So 48 minutes it took to complete the race.
