Gina : 2 units
The rest : 5 units
Total : 7 units
Hans : 1 unit
The rest : 2 units
Total : 3 units
Ian : 1 unit
The rest : 3 units
Total : 4 units
Hence find the lowest common multiple of 3, 4 and 7 which is 84
As such :
Gina : 24 units
Hans : 28 units
Ian : 21 units
To find June’s share : Subtract (24 + 28 + 21) from 84 which gives 11 units.
Since June paid $30 less than Ian and the difference betw them is 10 units, 10 units therefore represents $30.
From the above, the total cost is $252 as the total number of units is 84
10 units : 10 x 3 = $30
84 units : 84 x 3 = $252 -

After 20 minutes into a cross country race, Teck Seng has run 5/8 of the route while Jack has covered only 3/8 of the distance. Teck Seng runs at the same average speed throughout the race and Jack's average speed is 60 min/min slower than Teck seng's.
a) Find the total distance of the cross country race.
b) If Jack wants to finish the race at the same time as Teck Seng, by how much should he increase his average speed for the remaining part of the race? (Express your answer in m/min)[/img] -
Is there a typo on "60min/min" above ??

Ning and Zhongwei jogged to and fro repeatedly along a straight path in a park between two points A and B. Ning jogged at a uniform speed of 4m/s and Zhongwei jogged at a uniform speed of 6m/s. They started jogging from opposite directions at the same time as show below,
A ------------------X-----------------------------------Y--------------------B
They first met one another at point X. The second time they met was at point Y.
a). Given that the distance between X and Y is 160 m. Find the distance between A and B.
b). If they started jogging at 8am, how long did they take to meet again for the third time? (Express your answers in minutes and seconds)
