Two boats sail towards each other at speeds of 28 km / h and 36 km / h, respectively.

Two boats sail towards each other at speeds of 28 km / h and 36 km / h, respectively. Now there are 192 km between them. What is the distance between the boats in 2 hours

We first need to find out how many kilometers in one hour two boats will approach each other:

1) 28 km / h + 36 km / h = 64 km / h – two boats will sail together in one hour.

Next, we determine how many kilometers two boats will sail together in two hours:

2) 64 km / h * 2 h = 128 km.

Now we will be able to answer the question to this problem, if we subtract the distance that the boats have sailed in two hours from the distance known to us:

3) 192 km – 128 km = 64 km.

Answer. The distance in two hours is 64 km.
