hmm...
okay so let's use logic:
if we have two trains that both need to cover 20 miles at 10mph each.. since they are going to crash halfway..

So it will take the first train:
t = d/V = 20/10 = 2hrs to get to the middle.. which means that the other train will get there in two hours as well..

At 15 miles per hour... the fly travels:
d = V*t = 15 * 2 = 30 miles..

The fly flies 30 miles until its horrible demise.
