Two trains leave a station at the same time, one traveling west at a rate of 60 kilometers per hour, and the other traveling east at 55 kilometers per hour. In how many hours will they be 460 kilometers apart?
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The trains are separating at a rate of 60+55 = 115 km/hr
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "time = distance/rate = 460/115 = 4 hours
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------
