When they are both racing on hoverboards, victoria is 3 times as fast as her brother max. when she is on foot, she is 3 times slower than max on his hoverboard. they took off on hoverboards at the same time, but after 12 minutes, victoria’s hoverboard broke and she immediately started to run. if the race was a tie, how long, in minutes, did it last from start to finish?

Race completed in 48 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Max on hoverboard is = x

Then as per question speed of Victoria on hoverboard = 3x

Now it has been given in the question that speed of Victoria on foot is 1/3 of the speed of Max on hoverboard that will be = x/3

Now we will form the equation.

As we know the formula speed = distance/time

Let the time taken by both to complete the race be t minutes.

Distance covered by Victoria in 12 minutes + Distance covered by Victoria on foot = distance covered by Max on hoverboard

Then the equation will be

12(3x)+(1/3)x(t-12)=xt

So 48 minutes it took to complete the race.
