Let the time elapsed be x, then
30x + 300 = 55x
55x - 30x = 300
25x = 300
x = 300/25 = 12

Therefore, it will take the express train 12 hours to overtake the freight train.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parts of the complex number are called the <em>real</em> part and the <em>imaginary</em> part. The imaginary part is identified by its multiplier of <em>i</em>.

In the given number, the 2 is multiplied by i, so 2 is the imaginary part. The other part, 4, is the real part.
