Question 1044865

Mr. Fisher travels from Boise, Idaho, toward Casper, Wyoming, at a rate of 56 mi/hr. Mr. Collins leaves Casper for Boise at the same time, traveling at 64 mi/hr. If the cities are 658 mi apart, how long will it be before the two men meet?
<pre>Let time to meet be T
Then we get the following DISTANCE equation: 56T + 64T = 658
120T = 658
T, or time taken to meet = {{{658/120}}}, or {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,9, 5&58/120, or, 5&29/60, hours, or, 5, hours, 29, minutes))}}}
