---
s = d/t
t = d/s
d = st
---
a = distance traveled by patty when tom departs:
a = 45*3
a = 135
---
b = distance between them when tom departs:
b = 345 - a
b = 345 - 135
b = 210
---
speed of patty and tom relative to each other:
s = 45 + 60
s = 105
---
time after tom departs when they meet:
t = d/s
t = 210/105
t = 2 hours
---
answer:
time when they meet:
3:00 pm + 2 hours = 5:00 pm
