A sixth grade arithmetic problem A city holds a cycling race around the city. The fastest person meets the slowest person 35 minutes after starting. It is known that the slowest person's speed is 5 / 7 of the fastest person. A week around the city is 6 kilometers. What's the speed of each person?

Make the fastest person x
There are 35 (1-5 / 7) x = 6
X = 0.6 km / min = 36 km / h
The slowest person's speed is 36 * 5 / 7 = 180 / 7 km / h
