The Great Race
(from Mathline)
Tortisha
and Harry were arguing about who could run the fastest. To end the dispute,
they decided to have a race. Harry was so sure that he was faster than
Tortisha that he said, “I'll give you a 2 mile head start and still
beat you in the race.” If Harry runs 3/4 mile every 6 minutes and
Tortisha runs 1/2 mile every 5 minutes, who will win the race?
