The number of people travelled by train from the station on tuesday is 357.

Let us assume the number of people who travelled by train from the station on tuesday be x. Using the concept of ratio and proportion to solve and calculate x.

Forming the ratio-

20 : 17 = 420 : x

Solving the ratio and proportion for the value of x

x = (420 × 17) ÷ 20

Performing multiplication in numerator

x = 7140 ÷ 20

Performing division on Right Hand Side of the equation

x = 357

Therefore, based on the information, 357 people used to travel.
