Question 1038538: Sally and her husband Jim left their house at the same time traveling in the same direction. Sally drove 55 mph and Jim drove at 65 mph. How many hours was it before Jim was 100miles ahead of Sally? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since they are going the same direction, each hour Jim is 10 miles further away from Sally (65-55). 100 miles / 10 miles = 10 hours
