Answer:
Let the variable S1 be the Speed of bus 1
Let the variable S2 be the Speed of bus 2
We are told the speed of one bus, say bus 1 is twice the speed of the other, bus two. So we know that S1 = 2 X S2
We are also told that the distance traveled by bus one plus the distance traveled by bus 2 is 240 km so
S1 X 1 hour + S2 X 1 hour = 240
or
S1 + S2 =240
Now substitute 2 X S2 for S1 as we showed them to be equal above, then we have
(2 X S2) + S2 = 240
or
3 X S2 = 240
divide both sides of the equation by 3 and we get
S2 = 240 / 3 or 80 km/ hr
S1 is twice S2 so S1 = 160 km/ hr
