I stumped myself on this one.  4 cars driving in a relay race.  The total distance covered is 450 miles in 4.5 hours.  Car A drove for 45 minutes, Car B drove 140 Miles, Car C drove 120 Miles, and Card D drove at 120 mph.  Is there enough information to solve this?  If so, how do you begin?  I started with 450=.75E + 140 + 120 + 120L and 4.5=.75 + I + J + K and combination's with those formulas.  Thanks in advance! </SPAN>\n" );
