Two motor ships departed from the two piers at the same time towards each other.

Two motor ships departed from the two piers at the same time towards each other. The speed of the first is 24 km / h and he went 96 km to the meeting. The second motor ship passed 120 km before the meeting. How fast is it?

This task is solved in two simple steps:
1) 96: 24 = 4 hours the first motor ship was on the way.
Since they departed from the pier at the same time, the second motor ship took 4 hours to travel.
2) 120: 4 = 30 km / h speed of the second motor ship.
Answer: The speed of the second motor ship is exactly 30 km / h.
