Trains A and B are traveling in the same direction on parallel tracks. Train A is traveling 40 miles per hour. Train B is traveling 48 miles an hour. Train A passes a station at 10:25 pm. If train B passes the same station at 10:55 pm, at what time will train B catch up with train A ?

The distance between the trains decreases at a rate of 8 miles per hour, if they both are moving. At 10:55 pm, the distance between the trains is (1/2 hour)* 40 mph = 20 miles. The time to catch up is 20 miles/8 mph = 2.5 hours. One will pass the other at 2.5 hours after 10:55 PM
