A reindeer chased by a Cheetah passed a certain tree at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour while being chased by a Cheetah. Then, 2 minutes later, the Cheetah passed the same tree at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. If both animals maintained their speeds, how long after the Cheetah passed the tree did the Cheetah catch up with the reindeer? Pick.
A) 30 min
B) 45 min
C) 1 hr
D) 3 min
E) 1 min

Rationale: when the cheetah is at the tree , the reindeer is 50 / 30 miles ahead on the highway . ( the distance covered in 2 min ) every hour , cheetah runs 10 miles more than the deer . how many hours will it takes it to cover 50 / 30 miles more ? the answer is ( 50 / 30 ) / 10 = 1 / 60 = 1 min answer e
Answer: D
