<PRE><B>Question 900076</B>
Two trains leave stations 
468
 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 
85
 miles per hour while the other travels at 
95
 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to meet
 -------
Closing speed:: 85 + 95 mph = 180 mph
-----
Ans:: time = distance/rate = 468/180 = 2.6 hrs = 2 hrs 36 minutes
