Tom and jerry leave from the same place in opposite directions. tom drives 38mph. jerry drives 50mph. in how many hours are they 176 miles apart?

Both Tom and Jerry will apart 176 miles in 2 hours .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as:

Tom and Jerry moves in opposite direction

The speed of Tom = 38 mph

The speed of Jerry = 50 mph

Let The distance cover by Tom = x mile

The  distance cover by Tom = ( 176 - x ) miles

Time taken by both are same = T hour

Or, Time taken by Tom

T =       ... 1

∴ x = 38 T  

And Time taken by Jerry

Or, T =    

So , put the value of T from 1

 =    

Or, 50 × x = ( 176 - x ) × 38

So 50 x + 38 x = 6688

Or, 88 x = 6688

∴   x = = 76 mile

So, From, eq 1

T =  

or, T =    = 2 hours

Hence both Tom and Jerry will apart 176 miles in 2 hours . Answer
