If two trains are 120 miles apart and are traveling toward each other at constant rate of 30 miles per hour and 40 miles per hour, respectively, how far apart will they be 1 hour before they meet?

(A) 10
(B) 30
(C) 40
(D) 50
(E) 70


Relative speed of the two trains = 30 + 40 = 70 miles per hour

In the last 1 hour before they meet, the trains together have to travel for 1 hour at a speed of 70 miles per hour.

Hence they will be 70 miles apart,1 hour before they meet.

Answer E.


Thanks,
