Gabby left the mall and drove north. Violet left 2 hours later, driving 18 mph faster to catch up with Gabby. After 3 hours, she caught up with Gabby. Find Gabby's
average speed.
O 45 mph
O 54 mph
O 27 mph
O 36 mph


Answer :

let the speed of Gabby be S and the speed of violet be S+18

they drove the same distance(d) so d is constant

S*5=(S+18)*3

5s=3S+54

2S=54

S=27mph
