Question 424235: Two cars A and B average speeds of 30 and 40 mi/hr respectively are 280 miles apart. They start moving toward each other at 3:00 p.m. At what time will they meet? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You can think of one car as standing still and the
other approaching it at the sum of their speeds hrs
They will meet at 3:00 PM + 4 hrs = 7 PM
