Two cars simultaneously drive towards each other from two cities, the distance between which is 456 km. The speed of the first car is 68 km / h, and the speed of the second is 16 km / h more. In how many hours will they meet?

1. Let’s find the speed of the second car if it is known that it travels 16 kilometers per hour more than the first car travels.

68 + 16 = 84 kilometers.

2. Let’s calculate the speed of convergence per hour of two cars.

68 + 84 = 152 kilometers.

3. Find out in how many hours they will meet.

456/152 = 3 hours.

Answer: In three hours the cars will meet each other.
