5.42 - 4.62 = .8 kpm faster.

10Km / .8 kpm = 12.5 minutes to catch up.

took less than 2 minutes Anna

Go and try it out. let your friend drive behind you at 5.43 km /min and you drive at 4.62 km/min and see how long it will take.

relative speed=5.42-4.62 = 0.8km/m
thus, time needed by lamborgh = 10km/0.8km/m
time needed = 12.5 minutes
thats yr answer
