Let the 2 persons be A and B respectively.
A=5km/h
B=5.5km/h
t=2.5 hours
Distance=?
Distance=speed ×time
A =5×2.5
=12.5km
B=5.5×2.5
=28.5km
Difference between them=28.5-12.5
=16km..
Hope it helps

Person 1 :
Speed = 5 km/h
Time = 2.5 hours
Distance = Speed x Time
Distance = 5 x 2.5 = 12.5 km
Person B:
Speed = 5.5 km/h
Time = 2.5 hours
Distance = Speed x Time
Distance = 5.5 x 2.5 = 13.75 km
Find the total distance:
Total Distance = 12.5 + 13.75 = 26.25 km
Answer: The total distance is 26.25 km
