A and B leave each other from the two places. A travels 96 kilometers per hour, and the existing trains 88 kilometers per hour. When they meet, the meeting place is 40 kilometers away from the midpoint of the two places

A and B leave each other from the two places. A travels 96 kilometers per hour, and the existing trains 88 kilometers per hour. When they meet, the meeting place is 40 kilometers away from the midpoint of the two places


The distance between a and B is x km
(X/2+40)/96=(X/2-40)/88
X=1840
A: the distance between a and B is 1840 km



A and B leave from two places at the same time. A travels 96 kilometers per hour, B 88 kilometers per hour. The distance between the two places is 40 kilometers. How many meters is the distance between the two places?

Meeting time
40×2÷(96-88)
=80÷8
=10 (hours)
The distance between the two places
(96 + 88) × 10 = 1840 (km)
