Two buses leave Charlotte at the same time traveling in opposite directions. One bus travels at 63mph and the other at 62mph. How soon will they be 187.5 miles apart?

1 1/2 hours
I’m one hour they are 125 miles apart
63 + 62 = 125
Cut them I half (adds half an hour)
31 +31.5 = 62.5
125+62.5= 187.5
So it takes 1 hour and 30 minutes for them to be 187.5 miles apart
