tim and é lan are 60 miles away from one another. they are starting to move towards each other simultaneously, tim at a speed of 10 mph and é lan at a speed of 5 mph. if every hour they double their speeds, what is the distance that tim will pass until he meets é lan?
multiply(divide(10, add(5, 10)), 60)
tim and elan will meet at the same time while their ratio of speed is 2 : 1 respectively . so their individual distance traveled ratio will be same . plugging in the answer choice only answer choice c meet the 2 : 1 ( tim : elan = 40 : 20 ) ratio of maintaining total distance traveled 60 miles so correct answer c
