time and miles per hour

Question

If Bob is traveling 65mph and Bill is traveling 70mph how long will it take until they are 270 miles apart?

Carol H. · Accepted Answer

Arturo is correct in his comment.
But, let's pretend they left from the same point and traveled in opposite directions. Distance = rate X time
 65t + 70t = 270
 135t = 270
 t = 2 hours
