Answer:

70 miles an hour

Explanation:

First, you want to know how fast bus A can go. So you want to do 125/3 since the bus travels 3 hours. you get 41.6666667. keep that number. then you want to divide 85 by 3 since bus B is going for 3 hours. you get 28.3333333. then you add those numbers to get how fast bus B is going and you get 70 miles per hour for bus B
