A remote control car races straight down the street at 26 miles per hour. Two

hours later, a second remote control car races straight down the same street
at 52 miles
per hour in pursuit of the first car. From the moment the first car
started, how many hours will it take the second car to catch up to the first?
On what scale is the speed of each car measured?

52-26=26. 26 divide 120 =4.6 hours and fraction 4.62 hours not sure how you are doing this.
