Question 515751
d = distance
r = rate
t = time
.
d = r*t is the basic distance equation
.
You will use this to solve the problem.
.
d = 100, which is known.
.
The two guys travel at different rates, but the rates are known:  20 mph and 8 mph
.
If they leave at the same time, then their elapsed times will be the same.
.
20 mph * t hr + 8 mph * t hr = 100 miles
.
t(20+8) = 100
.
t = 100/28
.
t= 25/7 = 3 4/7 hr
.
They will meet in 3 4/7 hr.
.
4/7 of an hour = 4/7 * 60 min/hr = about 34.3 minutes
.
They left at 11 a.m.
so
11 a.m. + 3 hr 34.3 min = about 2:34 p.m.
.
We can check the distances traveled by each to be sure the answer is correct.
.
25/7 hr * 20 mph = 500/7 miles
25/7 hr * 8 mph = 200/7  miles
500/7 + 200/7 = 700/7 = 100 miles
Correct.
.
Done.
