Question 1163870: Two trains start from town X and town Y at 12 noon and travel towards each other at the speeds of 25 Km/h and 35km/h respectively. If the distance between the two towns is 180km, at what time the two trains meet?? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The two trains are heading toward each other, so together they are closing the distance between them by the sum of their speeds. Add the speeds together then divide the total distance they have to travel, 180km. That will give you the number of hours it will take them to meet. Add that amount of time to 12 noon.
