Question 1046428: two trains leave the station at the same time one heading east and the other heading west. the eastbound train travels at 95 mph. The westbound train travels at 105 mph. how long will it take for the two trains to be 240 miles apart? Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 95+105 = 200 they are traveling away from each other at 200mph
240/200 = 1.2 hours... and 0.2 hours in minutes? 0.2*60 = 12 minutes.
It will take them 1 hour and 12 minutes to be 240 miles away from each other.
