Suppose the cars start at the same time and collide with each other after time $t$ $t$ hours

Distance traveled by car A in this time $= Displacement$ $=" Displacement"$
$= Speed \times Time$ $="Speed"xx"Time"$
$= 20 \times t miles$ $=20xxt" miles"$
Similarly distance traveled by car B in the same time $= 35 \times t miles$ $=35xxt" miles"$
At the time of collision total distance traveled by both cars must be $= 60 miles$ $=60 " miles"$
$:.$ we have
$20t+35t=60$
$=>55t=60$
Solving for $t$ we obtain
$t=60/55~~1" hr "5 " m "27" s "$
