Dan: Assuming you are talking TIAS they will both be about 1/2 way because wids aloft are are from the west and the ground speed will be close to the same. I have made (4) RT from So. CA to the midwest and always a tail-wind east bound and always a head-wind west bound Therefore one can use your TAS to estimate your RT time and be pretty close to actual experience. Not to say that other winds aloft situations are not possible but not something to count on in advanced planning.
