Question 498743: Mr. Franco and Mr. Jimenez each drove home from a business meeting. Mr. Franco traveled east at 100 km/hr and Mr. Jimenez traveled west at 80 km/hr. In how many hours were they 100 kilometers apart? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Mr. Franco traveled east at 100 km/hr
and Mr. Jimenez traveled west at 80 km/hr.
they are moving away. So add up speeds . 100+80 = 180 km/h
Distance = 100 km
time = distance / time
time= 100/180
time = 5/9 hours
