<PRE><B>Question 602153</B>
the distance traveled by both is same when one catches up with the other.										
Let them meet at distance x										
Train A  	speed=	80	mph		, starts at		03:20	pm		
Train B  	speed=	100	mph		starts at		03:35	pm		
										
Time difference  between the starting of the two=			0.25	hours						
										
Time taken by  	Train A  	=	X  /	80						
Time taken by  	Train B  	=	X  /	100						
										
X  /	80	-	X  /	100	=	0.25				
										
LCD -	400									
Multiply equation by	400									
400	/	80	x-	400	/	100	x=	0.25	*	400
5	x  	-	4	x	=	100				
1	x  	=	100							
/	1									
x=   	100	miles								
Train A  	speed=	80	mph							
Distance =  	100	miles								
Time taken =	100	/	80							
Time taken =	1.25	hour								
										
They will be together at		04:35	pm	

Train B catches up at 4:35 pm
