Do it like this one:
--------------------------------
a car leaves place a traveling 120 kilometers per hour. An hour later a second car leaves place A following the first car, traveling 140 kilometers per hour. How many hours after leaving place A will it take the second car to overtake the first?
-------------
The 1st car is 120 km ahead.
The 2nd car "gains on" the 1st at 20 km/hr
