Natasha and Boris are traveling between Town A and Town B, a distance of 245 miles. Natasha leaves Town A at 9:00 am traveling at 45 mph. Boris leaves Town B at 10:00 am traveling 10 mph faster than Natasha. At what time do they meet?

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

They would both meet at approximately 2:27 and 30 secs

Explanation:

First you divide 245 by 45 and get 5 hours with 20 extra miles to go

so you take 45 and multiply by 60 and get 0.75

which means Natasha/town A is moving at 0.75 miles

per minute.

I personally just did trial and error and got 27 minutes

So natasha would arrive at 2:27

Second I divided 245 by 55 and got 4 hours with 25 extra miles left to go

I divided 55 by 60 and got 0.916 repeating (miles per minute)

then I did trial and error and got 27minutes and 30 seconds

So Boring would arrive 30 seconds after Natasha at 2:27 and 30 seconds
