At starting at 10am in the morning, J travels from A to B which is 13km.
Then Starting at 12pm noon M starts riding from B to A.
They meet at 2:05pm
J and M both arrive at there respective destinations at the same time, which is represented by x.
find x

I legit dont even know where to start with this.
I think you have to figure out how far each has had traveled when they meet, due to the total distance which both J and M had traveled at 2:05pm being 13km. then you can use that to figure out the speed and then see at what time they both travel 13km or to A and B respectively.
But i have no idea where to start, any help would be very grateful

Right there!!

Anyway, assume:

Speed of J is = J

Speed of M is = M

The distance of meet point from A is = D

The distance of meet point from B is = 13 - D

Time taken by J to come to meet point is = 4 hr 5 min = 245 min

Time taken by M to come to meet point is = 2 hr 5 min = 125 min

Now continue.....
