    Answer: They are 41 miles apart after 3 hours.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The speed at which Aran runs is

    7 mph.

    Distance = speed * time

    If Aran runs for 3 hours, then the distance that he would cover is

    7 * 3 = 21 miles

    The speed at which Anil runs is

    5 mph. They decide it would be fair if Anil got a 1 hour head start. This means that the total time that Anil spent running is 3 + 1 = 4 hours.

    Distance covered by Anil in 4 hours is

    5 * 4 = 20 miles

    Therefore, the total distance covered after 3 hours is

    21 + 20 = 41 miles
