Question 551651: Two trains are leaving a station. The Southbound train travels at 60 kilometers per hour, while the northbound train moves at 45 kilometers per hour. in how many hours will the trains be 300 kilometers apart if both will travel continuously? Answer by mananth(16949) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! North 45 km/h
south 60 km/h
opposite directions
so add up speeds
60+45 = 105 km/h
distance = 300 km
t=d/r
t= 300/105
t= 2.85 hours
