I’d like a formula that i can use to these questions thanks :)

Answer 1

Answer:

greg, 4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

find how long it takes each person to run 2km first.

distance/speed:

• pepper: 2/3 *60(seconds)=40 seconds

• Greg: 2/5 *60= 24 seconds

40-12=28 seconds, pepper will take 28 seconds to finish the race from the time greg starts. greg will win by 4 seconds
