Question

two cars travel in opposite directions, starting from the same place at the same time. One travels at an average rate of 48 miles per hour and the other averaged at 55 miles per hour. in how many hours will the be 618 miles apart?

Answer 1

So in 1 hour they will be 48+55=103 miles apart
how many hours will it be in 618
103 times x hours=618
divide both sides by 103
x=618/103
x=6

the answer is 6 hours
