In mathematics, a proof is a deductive agruement for a mathematical statement.In the argument,other prevoiusly establised statements, such as theroms, an be used. In principle, a proof can be traced back to self-evident or assumed statements, known as axioms, along with accepted rules of inference.

Here speed of first train is slower than speed of second train. So if they catch up , the distance traveled will be same since they left the same station at different times.

But the time traveled will be different .

Let us say the two trains meet at time t ,

Distance = speed * time

Distance traveled by first train = 40 t

Since second train is leaving after three hours , so

Distance traveled by second train = 60(t-3)

As discussed earlier, distance traveled will be same, so

$40t =60(t-3)$
