    Basiclaly, when will total distance equal distance they are apart

    distance apart=280

    distance=speed times time

    assuming they travel sasme amount of time

    time=t

    distance=speed times time

    d1=95 times t

    d2=105 times t

    total distance=d1+d2

    280=d1+d2

    280=95t+105t

    280=200t

    divide both sides by 200

    1.4=t

    answer is 1.4 hours or 84 mins
