A freight car and a passenger car leave from Jiaji and meet each other in 4 hours. It takes 12 hours for the train to complete the whole journey, and how many hours for the passenger car?

It takes 4 hours for a bus and 12-4 = 8 hours for a truck
Therefore, the speed ratio of truck and bus is 8:4 = 2:1
Therefore, it takes 12 * 1 / 2 = 6 hours for a bus to complete the whole journey
