Math, asked by solarfarris, 10 months ago

Two trains, serving the Chicago to New York route, a distance of 800 miles, start toward each other at the same time (along the same tracks). One train is traveling uniformly at 60 miles per hour, and the other at 40 miles per hour. At the same time, a bumblebee begins to fly from the front of one of the trains, at a speed of 80 miles per hour, toward the oncoming train. After touching the front of this second train, the bumblebee reverses direction and flies toward the first train (still at the same speed of 80 miles per hour). The bumblebee continues this back-and-forth flying until the two trains collide, crushing the bumblebee. How many miles did the bumblebee fly before its demise?
