A train leaves town A for town B, traveling at 35 mi/h. At
the same time, a second train leaves town B for town A at 45 mi/h. If the two towns
are 320 mi apart, how long will it take for the two trains to meet?
Ok, these problems are the worst for me. I would like to know how to arrive to the answer.
Would I do 35 divided into 320 and the same for 45?
The answers would be 9 and seven. Would I add those divide by two, and get 8?
This is really confusing, math is my worst subject, let alone word problems, any help would be greatly appreciated.
