Two trains are moving towards each other. One train moves at a speed of 50 mph, and the other train travels at 60 mph. How soon will they meet, if originally the distance between them was 340 miles?

Given:

Two trains are moving towards each other. One train moves at a speed of 50 mph, and the other train travels at 60 mph.

The distance between the two trains is 340 miles.

We need to determine the time that the two trains will meet.

Time:

Let us determine the time taken by the train to meet.

Let us determine the time using the distance formula.

Thus, we have;

Let us write the distance traveled by each train using the distance formula.

The train moves at a speed of 50 mph will cover a distance of 50t.

The train moves at a speed of 60 mph will cover a distance of 60t.

Hence, the total distance, that the trains will cover is given by

Since, the distance between the two trains is 360 miles, we have;

Therefore, the time taken by the train to meet is 3.09 hours.

15% chance.
