.
a bomber takes off and flies 500 kph a fighter setting out 2 1/2 hrs late flies at 750 kph.
how long will it take for the fighter to overtake the bomber and how far will the bomber have travelled at this time?

The solution in the post by @mananth has one crucial error.
He mistakenly uses and operates with miles and miles per hour,
while he should use kilometers and kilometers per hour.
It reminds me a famous error in NASA calculations, when one team calculated
everything in old English units, while the other team thought that the numbers are in SI system.
The accompanying info from Google AI Overview
That famous NASA error involved the 1999 Mars Climate Orbiter, which was
lost because Lockheed Martin used English units (pound-seconds for thrust)
while NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) assumed metric units (Newton-
seconds), causing the spacecraft to enter Mars' atmosphere too low and burn
up instead of entering orbit, a $125-$327 million disaster highlighting
crucial communication gaps and unit confusion.
