ortwo flocks of birds are 210 miles apart and heading directly toward each other. one flock is flying at a rate of 25 miles per hour. in comparison, the other flock is flying at a rate of 37 miles per hour. in how much time will the two flocks meet?

Respuesta :

If one flock is flying at a rate of 25 miles per hour and the other flock is flying at a rate of 37 miles per hour then both the flocks will meet each other after 3.39 hours.

Given, two flocks of birds are 210 miles apart and heading directly toward each other. one flock is flying at a rate of 25 miles per hour.

In comparison, the other flock is flying at a rate of 37 miles per hour.

We have to find in how much time will the two flocks meet.

Let, both take t hours to meet,

now, according to the question

first flock will travel the distance, 25t

and similarly second flock will travel the distance, 37t

so, 25t + 37t = 210

62t = 210

t = 3.39

So, both the flocks will meet each other after 3.39 hours.

Hence, if one flock is flying at a rate of 25 miles per hour and the other flock is flying at a rate of 37 miles per hour then both the flocks will meet each other after 3.39 hours.
