1 Two towns A and B, are 100 miles apart. Every 20 minutes (starting at
midnight) a bus traveling at 60 mph leaves towr1 A for town B, and every 30
minutes (starting at midnight) a bus travelling at 20 mph leaves town B for town
A. David starts in Town A and geta on a bus leaving for town B at noon.
However, David is always afraid he has boarded a bus going in the wrong
direction, so each time the bus he is in passes another bus, he gets out and
transfers to that other bus. How many hours pasa before David finally reaches
Town B?
