at 1 : 00 pm , a truck left city p and headed toward city q at a constant speed of 45 km / h . one hour later , a car left city q and headed toward city p along the same road at a constant speed of 40 km / h . if the distance between city p and city q is 300 km , at what time will the truck and the car meet each other ?
"at 2 : 00 pm , the truck and the car are 255 km apart . the truck and the car complete a distance of 85 km each hour . the time it takes to meet is 255 / 85 = 3 hours . they will meet at 5 : 00 pm . the answer is b ."
divide(subtract(divide(300, 45), 1), add(1, divide(40, 45)))
