Trains A and B are traveling in the same direction on parallel tracks. Train A is traveling at 100 miles per hour and train b is traveling at 110 miles per hour. Train A passes a station at 10:15am. If train B passes the same station at 10:45 am. at what time will train B catch up with train A.
When will Train B catch up with train A?
-------------
In 0.5 hours train A goes 50 miles (100*0.5)
Train B gains on train A at 10 mph (110 - 100)
50/10 = 5 hours
10:45 + 5 = 1545, or 3:45 PM
