\n" ); document.write( "Let \"\"t\"\" be the time after Dawn left the library.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Tara’s time at that moment is \"t%2B3+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Dawn will catch up with Tara when the distance is same.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"14%28mil%2Fh%29%2At=8%28mil%2Fh%29%28t%2B3%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"14t=8%28t%2B3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"14t=8t%2B24\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"14t-8t=24\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"6t=24\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"t=4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Dawn will catch up with Tara in \"4\" hours.\r
