Question 515545: Two trains leave stations 256 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 85 miles per house while the other travels at 75 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to meet? Do not do any rounding. Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Train I 85 mph
Train II 75 mph
Distance 256 miles
So distance = 256
Let time they take to meet be x hours
Time taken to meet is same
t=d/r
combined speed= 160 mph
