d = r · t
dIsaac = 60t
dTravis = 35t
 
60t + 35t = 327.75
 
Can you solve for t and answer?

Hy Kaylee,
 
The value you got for t is correct.
 
Now you need to convert this into minutes which is 207 minutes.
 
 
Time they will meet on the road would be 3 hours and 27 minutes past noon. 
 
 
Time they would meet = 3:27 pm
