\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There is definitely enough info to solve the problem, unlike what you were thinking.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let distance from Point A to point B be D\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then time it took to get from point A to point B, traveling at 8 mph = \"D%2F8\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Time it took to get from point B back to point A, traveling at 4 mph = \"D%2F4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the round trip took 3 hours, then we can say that: \"highlight_green%28D%2F8+%2B+D%2F4+=+3%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve this equation and you'll get the distance from point A to point B\r
\n" ); document.write( "
