two persons,rameo julie start at the same time from oklahoma and kansas travel towards each other at 45km/hr and 54km/hr respectively. when they meet , it is found that one of them has travelled 72km more than the other.the distance between the places(in kms)is?

• Julie travels 54-45 = 9 km more than rameo in 1 hr.
  
  If one of them has travelled 72km more than the other, time taken to travel total distance = 72/9 = 8 hrs
  
  Relative speed = 45+54 = 99 km/hr
  total distance between places = 99*8= 792 kms.

• Ans:
  For 1hr, Julie travels 54-45=9km more than romeo
  to travel 72km more, time taken= 72/9=8hrs
  In 8hrs,
  Dist travelled by romeo=45*8=360km
  Dist travelled by Julie=54*8=432km
  Toatal distance between stations= 360+432= 792km

• let at time t they meet
  in tim t let rameo travel x km
  so t=x/45
  now at time t julie travel x+2 according to question
  so t=(x+72)/54
  on solving x=360
  so julie will trvel=360+72=432
  so total distance will be 360+432=792 km
