Plot distance vertical axis and time on horizontal and draw a graph with the first train leaving at zero time plot distance travelled in 4 hours I.E. 300miles draw a line. For second train start from 2 hours on time line and plot distance travelled in 4 hours I.E. 500 and draw line where they intercept draw a line to distance scale horizontally answer 375miles from the station.

A Local train leaves a station and runs at an average rate of 35 mph An hour and a half later an Express train leaves the station and travels at an average rate of 56 mph on a parallel track How?

When the express leaves the station, the local's lead is (1.5 x 35) miles. The lead closes at the rate of (56-35) = 21 mph. The express overtakes the local after (1.5 x 35 / 21) = 2.5 hours. The dramatic event takes place at a spot 140 miles out from the station.
