'A' is slower. 'B' is faster. 'A' covers 220 miles, while 'B' covers 310 miles. 'B' gained 90 miles on 'A'. Since 'B' gains 18 miles on 'A' in each hour, it took (90/18) = 5 hours for 'B' to gain 90 miles on 'A', so both stated distances were covered in 5 hours. Speed of 'A' = 220/5 = 44 Speed of 'B' = A+18 = 310/5 = 62

If one car travels at an average speed of 48 miles per hour A slower car travels an average speed of 36 miles per hour how many more miles per hour does the faster car travel than the slower car?
The faster car travels at 48 miles per hour The slower car travels at 36 miles per hour 48mph - 36mph = 12mph Therefore, the faster car travels 12 miles per hour faster than the slower car. Note that the question refers to the relative speeds of the cars and not the relative distances.
A train travels 80 miles per hour A plane travels 200 miles per hour How many hours longer will it take the train to travel 1600 miles than it will take the plane?
1600 / 80 = 20 hours by train 1600 / 200 = 8 hours by plane it will take 20 - 8 = 12 hours more by train
