Answer:

Mai is moving faster than Priya.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds.

[tex]Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

The speed Mai is

[tex]\text{Speed of Mai}=\frac{15}{6}=2.5[/tex]

Priya travels 22 meters in 10 seconds. Speed of Priya is

[tex]\text{Speed of Priya}=\frac{22}{10}=2.2[/tex]

Since speed of Mai is more than the speed of Priya, therefore Mai is moving faster than Priya.
