<u>Answer:</u>

It will take 2 hours 36 minutes for the two trains to meet.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The distance between the two trains is decreasing by 95+115= 210miles per hour, which can be written as \frac{210 miles}{1 hour}.

So at this rate, the distance between the trains will be reduced to zero in:

\frac{546 miles}{\frac{210 miles}{1 hour} } = 476 miles * \frac{1 hour}{210 miles}

= \frac{546}{210} = 2.6 hours

Changing 2.6 hours to hours and minutes:

2 hours + 0.6 hours = 2 hours + (0.6 * 60) = 2 hours + 36 minutes

Therefore, it will take 2 hours 36 minutes for the two trains to meet.
