At 7: 30 a. m., a bus left town p for town q at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. 15 minutes later, a car left town q and headed for town p. the car reached town p at 10: 45 a. m. the bus reached town q at noon. what is the distance between town p and town q?

the bus took 4.5 hrs going 60 kph to get from town P to town Q

this means that the distance from town P to town Q is 270 km

side note-the car kph isn't shown and it got to town Q faster than the bus, so it must have gone at a faster speed. i didn't use the car to solve the problem, just the bus.
