Studdy Solution
Use the formula for time to find when they will meet.
The formula to calculate time is:
Time=DistanceSpeed \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}
Substitute the known values:
Time=150km100km/h \text{Time} = \frac{150 \, \text{km}}{100 \, \text{km/h}}
Time=1.5hours \text{Time} = 1.5 \, \text{hours}
The correct answer is not listed among the options provided, but the calculated time for the automobiles to meet is:
1.5 \boxed{1.5}
