    Catch Up in 10 seconds

    Camilla will run 120 feet

    Gabriela will run 100 feet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Camilla's rate = 12

    Gabriella's rate = 10

    Camilla is 12 - 10 = 2 ft/sec faster

    Since Gabriella has 20 ft head start, Camilla has to catch up 20 feet.

    With 2ft/sec catching up rate, it will take:

    20/2 = 10 seconds to catch up

    So, it will take 10 seconds for Camilla to catch Gabriela

    So in 20 seconds,

    Camilla will run 12 * 10 = 120 feet

    Gabriela will run 10 * 10 = 100 feet
