Answer:

8 days after the day Rita started running,Rita will run the same amount of time as Radha.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r be the number of days from the day Rita starts running, on which both of them run for the same amount of time.

Amount of time Rita will run r days after she started running = 30+6r min

Amount of time Radha will run r days after Rita started running =45+3(r+3)min

So, 30+6r=45+3(r+3).

30+6r=45+3r+9.

So, 6r-3r=45+9-30.

3r=24.

Hence, r=8.
