What is the speed of the plank relative to the ice surface

A 45.7 kg girl is standing on a plank that has a mass of 152 kg. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat, frictionless supporting surface. The girl begins to walk along the plank at a constant speed of 1.55 m/s relative to the plank.

(a) What is her speed relative to the ice surface?

(b) What is the speed of the plank relative to the ice surface?
