I am driving away from point A at a speed of 30 mph, my friend is driving in the opposite direction also at a speed of 30 mph.How far away from point A is my friend and I in half an hour?

Solution

Your DATA:
rate = 30 mph ; time = 1/2 hr ; distance = (1/2)30 = 15 miles
-----------------------
Your friend\'s DATA:
rate = 30 mph ; time = 1/2 hr ; distance = (1/2)30 = 15 miles
-------------------------
Ans: Each of you is 15 miles from point A.
