Think of this as one train standing still and
\n" ); document.write( "the other traveling at the sum of their speeds
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+t+\" = time in hrs for them to meet
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+448+=+%28+70+%2B+90+%29%2At+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+448%2F160+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+2.8+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.8%2A60+=+48+\"
\n" ); document.write( "In 2 hrs and 48 min they will meet
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "For slower train:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B1%5D+=+70%2A2.8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+df%5B1%5D+=+196+\"
\n" ); document.write( "For faster train:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B2%5D+=+90%2A2.8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B2%5D+=+252+\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B1%5D+%2B+d%5B2%5D+=+196+%2B+252+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d%5B1%5D+%2Bd%5B2%5D+=+448+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
