    You can use the equation d=rt

    Amy 14.4=40r r=0.36 kilometers/minute

    Bill 14.4=20r r = 0.72 kilometers/minute

    Amy (0.36 kilometers/minute) (60 seconds/1000 meters) = 0.0216 meters/second

    Bill (0.72 kilometers/minute) (60 seconds/1000 meters) = 0.0432 meters/second

    0.0432-0.0216=0.0216 meters/second faster than Amy
