Just divide the numbers by the totals to get the percentages
The cattle train
speed - 36.5 km/h
time - x h
the passenger train
speed - 29.2 km/h
time - (2.4+x) h
The cattle train caught up to the passenger train so the distance they travelled is the same.
Distance is speed times time.

The passenger train travelled for
12 hours before the cattle train caught up.
Answer:
The perimeter =72
The width = 16
The length = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
.A rectangle has 4 sides , so 72 divided by four is 18. The question is that the width is 4 less than the length. The difference between the length and the width is 4 so increase the length by 2 and decrease the width by 2. Now the numbers obtained are 16 ( 18 decreased by 2) and 20 (18 increased by 2). It is mentioned in the question that the width is less and length is more.
Diagonal, I hope I helped (:
