\n" ); document.write( "When Wendy left, Monica had been driving 2 hours at 30 km/h, so she had traveled 60 km.

\n" ); document.write( "Monica travels 10 km/h faster than Wendy; since she needs to make up 60 km to overtake Wendy, it will take her 60/10 = 6 hours.

\n" ); document.write( "Since she drives at 40 km/h, the distance from Montreal at which Monica overtakes Wendy is 4*60 = 240 miles.
