\n" ); document.write( "In the 14 minutes, the truck at 60mph (1 mile per minute) travels 14 miles.

\n" ); document.write( "When the car enters the highway, it is 14 miles behind the truck; and it is traveling 6mph faster than the truck.

\n" ); document.write( "The time required to make up 14 miles distance (i.e., to travel 14 miles farther than the truck and thus catch up to the truck) traveling 6mph faster is 14/6 hours, which is 14*10 = 140 minutes.
