Train A 40 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Train B 48 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Train A 11:15
\n" ); document.write( "Train B 11:30
\n" ); document.write( "Difference in time= 00:15 => 0.25 hours
\n" ); document.write( "Train A will have covered 10 miles before Train B starts
\n" ); document.write( "catch up distance= 10 miles
\n" ); document.write( "catch up speed = 48 -40 mph
\n" ); document.write( "catch up speed = 8 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Catchup time = catchup distance/catch up speed
\n" ); document.write( "catch up time= 10 / 8
\n" ); document.write( "catch up time= 1.25 hours
\n" ); document.write( "They will meet at 12:45 pm
\n" ); document.write( "Train B speed = 48 mph
\n" ); document.write( "Time to catch up = 1.25 hours 75minutes
