\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Sam DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate=57 mph ; time= 6.5 hrs. ; distance = rt = 370.5 miles
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Beth DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate= 63 mph ; time = 6.5 hrs ; distance = rt = 409.5 miles
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Distace between them is 409.5-370.5 = 39 miles
