Question 395493: Bill ran at 12 kilometers per hour while Leo ran at 10 kilometers per hour. How long did it take for them to be 2/3 of a kilometer apart?
This is a d=rt word problem and this is what I know, but I don't know how to put that together
Bill's rate is 12.
Leo's rate is 10.
They both travel for the same amount of time so i guess it will be x
So what I get is 12x and 10x and i dont know what to do from there Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):

How long did it take for them to be 2/3 of a kilometer apart?
:
If x = their running time
We know bill's dist is 12x and Leo's dist is 10x, the dif is 2/3 km
:
12x - 10x =
