It takes 12 minutes for Taro and 8 minutes for Jiro to run the surroundings of a pond 1 round.
When they started from the same point to the same direction, every how many minutes is Taro passed by Jiro ?
This site introduces problems of Sansue, i.e. mathematics which Japanese schoolchildren learn at elementary school. Problems are selected mainly from entrance examinations of famous junior high schools for 6th grade Japanese schoolchildren (12 years old) to take. We found Sansue is not only one of subjects at school but one of Japanese culture. Please enjoy Japanese Sansue culture.
