Answer:

3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London

Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"

hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"

  • The rate of Edin to London train is 60
  • The rate of London to Edin train is 40

Let the time they meet be"t"

Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

and

T is time

<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>

x = 60t

<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>

350-x = 40t

Solving for x:

350 - 40t = x

We put this into first equation:

x = 60t

350 - 40t = 60t

350 = 100t

t = 350/100

t = 3.5

They meet after 3.5 hours

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Split the number into the whole number component and fraction component.

5 8/25= 5+8/25.

For the denominator, recognize that

25×4=100.

Multiple =4.

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the multiple 4.

8×4/ 25×4.

Simplify.

32/100=0.32

Combine the whole number component with the decimal.

5+0.32=5.32
