\n" ); document.write( "Without any information about the time they started, you can't find the time when they will meet. But from the given information it is easy to find how long it will take them to meet; so I will assume that is what you are asking for.

\n" ); document.write( "Their combined speed is 140mph; the distance between them initially is 196 miles. The time it takes them to meet is distance divided by rate:

\n" ); document.write( "\"196%2F140+=+1.4\"

\n" ); document.write( "It takes them 1.4 hours, or 1 hour 24 minutes, to meet.
\n" ); document.write( "
