Train a and train b leave a central station at the same time. they travel the same speed, but in opposite directions, with train a heading towards station a, and train b heading towards station b. train a reaches station a after 4 h. train b reaches station b after 312 h. station a and station b are 562.5 mi apart.

what is the rate of the trains?

Divide the total distance by 2, to get the miles each train traveled.

562.5 / 2 = 281.25 miles.

Train A traveled for 4 hours:

281.25 miles / 4 hours = 70.3125 miles per hour.

Train B traveled for 3 1/2 hours:

281.25 miles / 3 1/2 hours = 80.357 miles per hour.

Round the speed of each train as needed.

about 0.75 hours
