Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we think about it, no matter how far each train travels, when they meet, they will have together travelled 390k.

If we let x = the time travelled by train A, then train B travels x - 1 hours, because it left one hour later.

Train A's distance is then 65x and train B's is 35(x - 1) = 35x - 35.

Together, the trains travel the 390k

65x + 35x - 35 = 390

100x - 35 = 390

100x = 425

x = 4.25 = 4 hours and 15 minutes

Soooo, the two trains meet at 2:15.
