Gregory will catch up Efren after 26 minutes 40 seconds.
Explanation:
Distance traveled = Speed x Time
Speed of Efren = 4 mi/h
Speed of Gregory = 8.5 mi/h
Let the time of catch up be t hours.
Time of journey of Efren before catch up = (t+0.5)hours, since he starts before half hour.
Distance traveled by Efren = 4 x (t+0.5) miles
Time of journey of Gregory before catch up = t hours.
Distance traveled by Gregory = 8.5 x t miles
If they catch up the distance traveled by them is same, so equating both distances.
4 x (t+0.5) = 8.5 x t
4.5t = 2
t = 0.44 hours =26.67 minutes = 26 minutes 40 seconds.
So Gregory will catch up Efren after 26 minutes 40 seconds.
