Question

Two trains leave stations 520 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 105 miles per hour while the other travels at 95 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to meet?

Do not do any rounding.

Answer 1

2.6 hours

Explanation:

The trains are closing their gap at the rate of 105+95 = 200 miles per hour. No gap will remain after ...

time = distance/speed = (520 mi)/(200 mi/h) =

It will take 2.6 hours for the two trains to meet.
