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
