Maxwell leaves his home and walks toward Brad's house. One hour later, Brad leaves his home and runs toward Maxwell's house. If the distance between their homes is 74 kilometers, Maxwell's walking speed is 4 km/h, and Brad's running speed is 6 km/h. What is the total time it takes Maxwell before he meets up with Brad?
Pick:	A) 3	B) 4	C) 5	D) 6	E) 8

Rationale: "total distance = 74 kms maxwell speed = 4 kms / hr maxwell travelled for 1 hour before brad started , therefore maxwell traveled for 4 kms in 1 hour . time taken = total distance / relative speed total distance after brad started = 70 kms relative speed ( opposite side ) ( as they are moving towards each other speed would be added ) = 6 + 4 = 10 kms / hr time taken to meet brad after brad started = 70 / 10 = 7 hrs distance traveled by maxwell = maxwell ' s speed * time taken = 4 * 7 = 28 + 4 = 32 kms . . . therefore total time taken by maxwell to meet brad = distance travelled by maxwell / maxwell ' s speed = 32 / 4 = 8 hrs . . . answer e"
Answer: E
