Jason is climbing a telephone pole next to a tree his friend Matt is climbing. Matt can climb 6 feet/minute and Jason can climb 12 feet per minute. After 7 minutes, how much higher will Jason be than Matt?
assistant
How far does Matt climb in 7 minutes? ** First find the distance Matt climbs in 7 minutes: 6 feet/minute * 7 minutes = <<6*7=42>>42 feet
How far does Jason climb in 7 minutes? ** Then find the distance Jason climbs in 7 minutes: 12 feet/minute * 7 minutes = <<12*7=84>>84 feet
How far will Jason be higher than Matt? ** Then subtract the distance Matt climbs from the distance Jason climbs to find the difference: 84 feet - 42 feet = <<84-42=42>>42 feet
#### 42
