Time Passing Speed 0B654D

1. **Stating the problem:** We want to understand the relationship between the time taken to pass in the opposite direction and the time taken to pass in the same direction, given that the time in the opposite direction is twice as fast. 2. **Interpreting the phrase "twice as fast":** If something is "twice as fast," it means it takes half the time. So, if $t_{same}$ is the time taken to pass in the same direction, then the time taken to pass in the opposite direction $t_{opp}$ satisfies: $$t_{opp} = \frac{t_{same}}{2}$$ 3. **Rephrasing the question:** "The time taken to pass in the opposite direction is half the time taken to pass in the same direction."
