Two steamers leave a port on a river at the same time, traveling in opposite directions. Each is traveling 22 mph. How long will it take for them to be 110 mi apart?

Sagot :

It took both  2.5 hours to be 110 miles apart

Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to time taken. Speed is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Since both steamers is travelling at 22 mph. therefore they cover the same distance at the same time. For them to be 110 miles apart, they need to each have covered 55 miles in the opposite direction

22 = 55/time

time = 2.5 hours

Therefore after 2.5 hours they would have covered 55 miles each therefore being 110 miles apart.
