document.write( "time = \"100%2F%28100%2B50%29\" = \"100%2F150\" = \"2%2F3\" of an hour = 40 minutes.\r\n" );

document.write( "Initial distance between them is 100 km.\r\n" );

document.write( "Since they move toward each other, the distance decreases at the rate of 100 km/h + 50 km/h = 100 km/h.\r\n" );
