In area when coming off a Mach number you will normally be told 'when able IAS ***kts' so to restrict all of descent. If you were in trail in this circumstance, the first would get 300kts, and the 2nd probably 280 or less, the 20 kts builds in the different descent rates and altitudes we see, and normally fine adjustments just aid confirming the separation needed.
