You can put this solution on YOUR website! rolly and romy are 15 kilometers apart and are walking toward each other. If rolly is walking at a rate of 7 kph and romy at a rate of 3 kph, in how many hours will they meet?

------
Rolly time = distance/rate = x/7 hrs
------
Rolly time (15-x)/3 hrs.
----
Since they meet at the same time::
x/7 = (15-x)/3
