Two buses leave Houston at the same time and travel in opposite directions. One bus averages 55 mi/h and the other bus averages 45mi/h. When will they be 400 miles apart?

Add them up and you get that they get an added 100 miles away every hour. Divide that by 400 and you get that they are 400 miles away after 4 hours.
