Question 733415: "Two cyclists travel on a straight path towards each other each travelling at a constant speed of 10mph. The cyclists start of 10 miles apart. If a fly starts at the front of one cyclists and keeps flying backwards and forward until the two cyclists crash, how far will the fly fly give that the fly travels at 1mph?"
I'm not sure where to start... please could you give a brief explanation of how to work it out if possible.
Thanks if you can help
