Chapter 27, Problem 60GP

James, Daniella, and Tara all possess identical clocks. As Daniella passes James in her rocket, James observes that her clock runs at 80% the rate of his clock. As Tara passes in her rocket, in the same direction as Daniella, James observes that her clock runs at 70% the rate of his clock. At what rate, relative to her clock, does Daniella observe Tara’s clock to run?
