Average speed of the car A is (Equation A) and Average speed of the car B is
(Equation B), where
and
are the distances and
and
are the times at which are travelling the cars A and B respectively.
We have to convert the time to the correct units:
1 hour and 36 minutes = 96 minutes
From the diagram (Please see the attachment), we can see that at the time they meet, we have:
(Equation C)
(Equation D)
From Equation A and C, we have:
208-x+16 = x
208 + 16 = 2x
x = 112 miles
Replacing x in Equation A:
Replacing x in Equation B:
