Two cars drove out to meet each other. the speed of one is 52.7 km / h and the other is 59.8 km / h. after 0.8 hours they met. What was the distance between them at the beginning of the journey?

The desired unsettled distance between two cars at the beginning of the journey is denoted by the conditional variable “Y”.
Based on the data of this problem and using the speed formula, we will form this equation: Y = (52.7 + 59.8) x 0.8.
When we solve this equation, we will have the following Y = 112.5 x 0.8 = 90 kilometers.
Answer: the initial distance between cars will be 90 kilometers.
