Question

Два путника вышли одновременно навстречу друг другу. Вместе они проходят каждый час 1/8 (одну восьмую) всего расстояния. Через сколько часов они встретятся?

Answer 1

если за час они проходят 1/8 всего расстояния,значит все расстояние они пройдут за 8 часов,а так как идут они навстречу друг другу,то встретятся через 8:2=4 часа

Ответ:через 4 часа 

Answer 2

Problem Analysis

Two travelers start walking towards each other simultaneously. They cover 1/8 of the total distance together every hour. We need to determine how many hours it will take for them to meet.

Solution

Let's assume that the total distance between the two travelers is represented by D.

In one hour, the two travelers cover a combined distance of 1/8 of D. This means that each traveler covers 1/16 of D in one hour.

To find the time it takes for the two travelers to meet, we can set up the following equation:

1/16D + 1/16D = D

Simplifying the equation, we get:

1/8D = D

To solve for D, we can cross-multiply:

1/8D * 8 = D * 8

D = 8D

This equation implies that the total distance D is equal to infinity, which doesn't make sense in this context. It seems that there might be an error in the problem statement or the information provided.

Unfortunately, without additional information or clarification, it is not possible to determine the exact time it will take for the two travelers to meet.
