Two trains on opposite tracks leave the same station at the same
time. One train travels at an average speed of 80 kilometers per
hour and the other travels at an average speed of 70 kilometers
per hour. How long after they leave the station will they be 50
km apart?

Answer: The answer is 1/3 hour, or 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The combined rate of separation is (80 km/hr + 70 km/hr) = 150 km/hr,

therefore they will be 1/3 of 150 km apart after traveling 1/3 of an hour.

I HOPE THIS HELPED YOU LOL
