Highway6 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Since we are paused for Musicman to return.. I shall fill the empty space not with trivia, but a Houston math problem.Car A and Car B are heading down 45 from Conroe. When they arrive at the loop (at the same time), Car A heads West at 50 mph and Car B heads East at 77 mph. There is no traffic or weather to slow either car down, but Car A does lose exactly 5 minutes along the way when he stops for gas.How long till they meet up again and at what closest major intersection ?
