168/3=56. 56 miles per hour.
This is a sum and difference problem, with the equations
R-N=35
R+N=635
The solution of which is
R=(635+35)/2=335
N=(635-35)/2=300
In general, the sum and difference problem can be solved (most of the time mentally) using
Larger number = (sum + difference)/2
Smaller number = (sum - difference)/2
The number = y
2y + 1/3 = 2/3 - 3y
(add 3y to both sides)
5y + 1/3 = 2/3
(subtract 1/3 from both sides to isolate y)
5y = 1/3
(divide by 5)
y = 1/15
