    2.4 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    after an hour the distance between them will be 80+70=150 miles

    1 hour ... 150 m

    x hours ... 360 m

    x*150=360

    x=360/150

    x=2.4 hours

    Answer: 2.4 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Distance = speed x time

    1st train = 80t

    2nd train = 70t

    80t + 70t = 360

    t = 360/150 = 2.4 hours
