If a bus traveling at 60 mph overtakes a car traveling at a rate of 45mph. If the car had a 1 Hour head start, how far from the starting point does the bus overtake the car: This problem can be written at 60t = 45+45t where t is hours. Solve for t=3, so if the bus overtakes the car after traveling for 3 hours, then it happens 60 mph*3hours= 180 miles from the start.
