Do it like this one:
-----------------------
Two trucks leave a depot at approximately the same time and travel the same route. How far apart are the trucks after 5½ hours if their average speeds are 50 miles per hour and 64 miles per hour?
---------------------
They separate at 14 mph (64-50)
14*5.5 = 77 miles
