Question

The fastest train in the world can go 501 km/h. How far can the train travel in 3 hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

1503 km

Explanation:

Distance is speed multiply times. We can express mathematically as:

$\displaystyle{s = vt}$

where s is distance, v is speed and t is time. We know that speed is 501 km/h and t is 3 hours. Therefore, substitute v = 501 and t = 3 in:

$\displaystyle{s = 501 \ \, \sf{km/h} \cdot 3 \ \, \sf{hours}}\\\\\displaystyle{s = 1503 \ \, \sf{km}}$

Therefore, the train will be able to reach 1503 km within 3 hours.

Answer 2

If the train travels at 501 an hour. 3•501 is 1,503. So the train can travel 1,503 km/h in 3 hours.
