Question 1006969: Two cruise ships leave Florida in the same direction. One travels 18 mph and the other 25 mph. In how many hours will the ships be 35 mile apart? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the faster ship travels 7 miles per hour more than the slower one, it would take 35/7 = 5 hours to separate to that distance.
