Answer 1

Answer:

Max ran farther

Molly ran faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Max ran 50 meters while Molly ran 30 meters meaning Max ran more kilometers than Molly thus Max ran farther

Speed = Distance/Time

Max's speed = 50/10 = 5 m/s

Molly's speed = 30/5 = 6 m/s

From the calculations above Molly's speed is greater than Max's speed therefore Molly ran faster.
