a) 12 mins = 12/60 hour = 1/5 hr
Hence, 85 / 5 = 17km
817 - 17 = 800km away
b) For this question, in order for them to pass each other, both altogether should cover the total distance.
Therefore, add up both average speed, 85 +75 = 160
800 / 160 = 5 hours
1000 + 0500 = 1500hrs / 3pm

Using ratio, you will be able to find how much time is spent for each journey.
A to B : B to A
6 : 4
3 : 2
X
2hours : 3hours
2h x 6km/h = 3h x 4km/h
Hence, the distance is 12km.

a) 8 x 20 = 160m
b) In order for train to pass the bridge completely, you need to add train length to bridge length.
920 + 160 = 1080
1080 / 24 = 45s

a) Since Sherise's mother grabbed her homework (12 minutes after Sherise left home) and ran towards her without delay,
60 x 12 = 720m
140 - 60 = 80
720 / 80 = 9 minutes later

b) Most direct way is to use
9 mins x 140 m/min = 1260m
