A and B leave from the East and West. A travels 60 kilometers per hour. B travels 52 kilometers per hour. They meet at 16 kilometers from the midpoint. How many kilometers are there between the two places If you can, please write down the specific process,


When they meet, a travels 16 × 2 = 32 kilometers more than B
Every hour, a travels 60-52 kilometers more than B = 8 kilometers
Encounter time: 32 △ 8 = 4 hours
The distance between the two places is (60 + 52) × 4 = 448km



A and B run from East and west at the same time. A runs 60 kilometers per hour, B 52 kilometers per hour. The two cars meet at 16 kilometers from the midpoint
How many kilometers are there between the East and the west?


16 × 2 = 32 (km) -- the distance of car a is more than that of car B
32 ÷ (60-52) = 4 (hour) - meeting time
4 × (60 + 52) = 448 (km) - whole journey
