Answer:

400 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed for car 1 is 92 km/h and the speed for car two is 68 km/h. The time is unknown but we know it has to be converted into minutes so the time for both cars will be x/60. Now we multiply speed by time and get distance. The first car is 92 x/60 and the second car is 68 x/60. Cross multiply and you get 92x/60 and 68 x/60 now we can make an equation. 92x/60 - 68 x/60 = 80, x = 200. We multiply x by 2 to get the second time which is 400 minutes.
