    Car B will catch Car A in 9 hours

    Distant = 720 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    After 3 hours, Car A traveled 3 * 60 = 180 miles and you need to find the time when both have traveled the same distant

    180 + 60x = 80x

    180 = 20x

    x = 9

    Distant = 80 * 9 = 720 miles
