Puzzle for the Day
Anagram for the Day

Distance Puzzle

The football world tour is well underway and Alfred is planning the journey to each country.

Unfortunately, the atlas software is playing up again and has worked out the mileage incorrectly, as shown below.

China       3,500
Finland     6,000
Chile       3,700
Jamaica     3,800
Wales       6,000

According to the software, how many miles is it to Germany?

Solution (Previous Puzzle):
Blake.

On the way there Alex drove 90 miles, and on the way back drove the (total distance - 100 miles).
On the way Blake drove the (total distance - 90 miles), and on the way back drove 100 miles.

So Alex drove 90 + total - 100 = total - 10.
And Blake drove total - 90 + 100 = total + 10.

So Blake drove 20 miles more than Alex.
