A train travelling at the rate of 18.5 miles an hour started at 7 am on a journey of 148 miles. A second train started from the same station and arrived 15 minutes after the first one. If the ratio of the speed of the second train to that of the first is 8 : 5, when did the second train start?

148/18.5=8 hours
3 pm--> first train reach 3.15pm->second train
8x:5x
5x=18.5 x=3.7
148/29.6=5 so it starts at 10am
